Here are the Results and Splits for the last DNC event of 2013/14 season. Click here for Routegadget.
Congratulations to all those who took part and braved the damp dark forests and heaths (not much if any snow this year, thankfully). 36 of us enjoyed the post-series curry and prize-giving at Derbar’s in Banchory. See you next year.
A good, dry, night had by all. Everybody who went out came back (always a relief). Results linked below, routegadget to follow …

Well, the weather was mild (9°C) but there was wetness in the air which dampened the outsides (but not the spirits) of the 40 people who ran at Balmedie. Tricky courses on a moonless night… No 154 in particular was hard, and the prizes go to those who persevered (eh, Ali?).
Many thanks to Dennis McD for planning and organising (enjoy your 30 pts!) and control collectors (in the worst of the rain) David E, Simonas and Rob.
P.S. We’ve attempted to update Age Classes shown in the results for the new orienteering year. If we’ve got it wrong, please email the correction to grampoc *at* gmail.com.
Hi to all night-O’ers. Here are the results for the Scolty DNC event tonight.
Routegadget is set up here – please add your routes.
The event theme was “check your codes”. There were controls on boulders (over 60m apart – all kosher!) and several people didn’t notice that they punched at the wrong boulder! It pays to pay attention, folks.
For a full list of dates, venues, results etc for the 2013/14 DNC take a look at the DNC Blog.
After a slight pause (frustrating for some but very handy for those of us away on holiday who thought we were going to miss the fun) for snow last week, we got to scamper round some of the lumpiest bits of Glen Dye. Ali’s signature style of Middle Distance flavour control picking proved very popular and certainly made the forest seem almost crowded with bobbing head torches.
Despite the short notice of the new date, 32 intrepid night orienteers took to the tricky moraine contours. Sasha stormed the long course ahead of Josh, and they were well ahead of the rest. Evgueni was just prevented from making it a Chepelin double by a fast run from Pete.
For the brave souls who ventured out to Forvie on Wednesday night, here are the results. Thanks for turning up!

Routegadget now up and running (which was more than I could manage on the brackeny bits!!)
Here are the results and splits for the unusual night-O in the sn-O-w at Balmedie. It must have felt very strange running the open dunes, with light reflections off the white stuff, and tracks going everywhere.
Why not blog your stories on the DNCchat blog?
Congratulations to Peter L for winning (comprehensively) his last race as Chairman!

Click here to jump through to the DNC blog to see who won what lavish prizes for the 2011/12 DNC and the overall results. Most nights saw frantic competition in relatively mild conditions compared to last year’s snowy epics – (although I think some folk secretly miss the buzz of floundering through deep drifts with their torchlight bouncing off and their breath hanging in illuminated clouds in front of their face – atmospheric yes but rubbish for trying to navigate and run quickly!)
