FROM THE SOUTH. 500m north of where the Cessnock Exit from the M1 motorway joins Freemans Drive, turn left into Becks road. Then as above.
Parking: There will be two sections for parking.
(a) Along the power line on the western side of the road. This may not suit low clearance vehicles.
(b) Along the power line which heads south from the bend in the road. Suitable for all vehicles.
A streamer trail will go along the western edge of the northern parking area (a) to access the assembly area. (Avoid walking on the road.)

Notes:
(1) Hard long and Hard medium
-- (a) will need to cross Becks road. ( Take care.)
-- (b) A pivot control will (hopefully) mean that runners will not cross the main parking area.
-- (c) These courses will have a separate finish. This will be marked with a control flag, not a “finish banner”.
(2) The area north of Becks Rd. (used by all courses) is frequented by trail bikes and 4WD’s. If you hear them coming – move out of their way.
(3) OLD STYLE SYMBOLS will be used. Mainly, tree-root mounds will be a brown “T”, oriented to match the direction of the fallen tree trunk.
