Parkland and urban.

Terrain: The area consists of open moorland with mixed runnability, including grass, bilberry and well-managed patchy heather. Bracken is significantly reduced from last year. Archaeological features abound, including bronze age burial mounds and standing stones. Terrain Safety All courses cross at least one farm track. There are very few vehicle movements on these tracks, but please be vigilant. Please remember that sheep droppings can transmit E. Coli and tick bites can transmit Lyme disease, and please be aware of adder bite symptoms. Map: 1:7,500 scale 5m contours A4 size. The maps will be printed on waterproof paper. The control descriptions will be printed on the maps, and loose copies will be available. Please use the provided hand sanitiser before taking your map and control descriptions in order to avoid any risk of contaminating other people's maps or control descriptions. Facilities: There will be a toilet near the parking area. Please bring your own toilet paper and hand sanitiser. (Toilet rolls can become contaminated with coronavirus. Hand sanitiser will be provided, but it's better if you use your own to avoid having to handle a sanitiser bottle that's been used by other people.) No drinks will be provided. Please bring your own refreshments.

Terrain: This is a new area to orienteering, with a brand new map by Paul Taylor and views towards Whitby. Graystone Moor consists of open moorland with mixed runnability. Heather dominates on the higher parts of the moor, but it's largely mown for commercial purposes and can be very quick to run on. On the lower parts of the moor the heather is more patchy and grass becomes more dominant. Apart from one lovely pine copse, there are few trees – just a few in the valleys. The area slopes down towards the north-west and the land is dissected by many small valleys that offer interesting contour detail. The marshes in the middle part of the moor often become significant bogs as they drain into the valleys. Some of these bogs are uncrossable and are marked Out Of Bounds on the map. There are a few hazardous cliffs, some of which will have yellow hazard tape above them. Apart from the 'Coast to Coast Walk' path that crosses the moor, there are few paths. There are plenty of sheep paths, some of which have been mapped as 'less distinct paths'. Also, some tractor tracks have been mapped using the 'ride' symbol and some distinct mown strips have been mapped in 100% yellow. There are no clothing restrictions – so you can run in shorts if you wish –but be aware of occasional scratchy heather and ticks. Also be aware that sheep droppings can transmit E. coli and please be aware of adder bite symptoms. Also, please note that this is an exposed area. Wear kit appropriate to the weather conditions and temperature. Map: 1:10,000 scale 5m contours A4 size. The maps will be printed on waterproof paper. The control descriptions will be printed on the maps, and loose copies will be available.
