that it's an american site and therefore describing the american CC system and that you hadn't realised that that's different to the british CC system?

[Braddie]

Err no...

[rob f]

is it to do with the difficulty though?

[mharky]

I've read the entire thing and I can't really find anything wrong with it. Unless you are including the cultural differences of American Orienteering and British Orienteering. Prehaps there was a spelling mistake?

[CHS]

Perhaps

Brown/Green/Red/Blue: The advanced courses are all of the same difficulty but vary in length, with brown being the shortest (usually 2 miles) and blue being the longest (up to 7 miles). The navigation is very tricky with few distinct features. These courses are designed for older teens and adults with extensive previous navigation experience and good physical conditioning.

hmm, its not exactly a mistake is it.

come one brady, do tell?

i rekon braddie is talking poo! ...that makes a change

[mharky]

i think the mistake he spoted was the color coded classifactioning, and we have failed to conceive the sarcasm of his post

[Nails]

its still quite likely that he's talking poo

[Kitch]

wonder around with your compass and map working on recognizing features.

is it the mild spelling mistake that has you so excited ?

Looking at the appalling spelling in some of these replies, I suspect that this would be an almost impossible error to notice for most !

[Nailest]

Wait a sec, I think I've got it! "Deliberate mistake" is an oxymoron!

Do I win five pounds?

[graeme]

Maybe the deliberate mistake is the claim that there is a mistake?
