More Information

The Canungra Classic continues to be the most innovative competition on the Australian calendar. In 1998 we introduced GPS verification of turnpoints. We will be repeating the use of GPS verification this year, although this year GPS will be mandatory, making it possible to have a start gate and possibly a turnpoint on the last day. All that is required is a GPS that can store a track log and timestamped waypoints. Currently the only models acceptable are the Garmin and Aircotec GPSs.

Read the GPS Users Guide

For accessories for your GPS check out Brian Sommerville's web page http://www.gpsoz.com.au.
