 , participants will get to explore pockets of forest at various stages of g
 rowth, each providing different navigational challenges. You will also find
  pockets of native eucalypt forest that are mostly clear under foot. Blackb
 erries are present in many of the watercourses.</p><p>Steep climbs reward p
 articipants with expansive views over the forest and towards Canberra.</p><
 p>Some areas of recent clearing or planting will be out of bounds. These wi
 ll be clearly marked on the map and participants are permitted to use the f
 ire trails around (and between) out of bound lots.</p><p>In addition to the
  network of fire trails, many mountain bike tracks cross the course. Your c
 ourse setters have tried to ensure that those tracks marked on the map accu
 rately reflect the track on the ground, however we have not marked all trac
 ks and you will likely stumble upon small trails of various condition that 
 have not been marked.</p><p>Entries cost $36 full and $28 concession. Under
