Division 6

From Alex Brett:

Drop Details

Division 6 teams are dropped on a distinct hairpin bend on Misty Mountain Road. With 29 minutes of scout time, teams are not going to reach any intersections and so will have to rely on road shape to pick drops. This is an important one to pick as teams that head north will have to turn around or bush bash! 

Route Overview

Teams heading north up Misty Mountain Rd will be unable to connect to reach Endpoint unless they take a west-bound bushbash onto the Corntrail. This is a tricky kilometer stretch of hills and scrub, and will take teams a significant time to dredge through, but it may be well worth it, saving more than 10km from teams going south. Do not underestimate the difficulty of this though!

Otherwise south-bound teams will take the long route around to the Corntrail, continuing until a split between Monga Ln or Monga Mtn Road (passing through div 7’s dropsite). Of the two, the southern route along Monga Ln is less hilly. Finally, both routes will combine back into the funnel into the endpoint!
