SUMMARY:Go West Virtualgaine
LOCATION:Duffy Oval\, Duffy
URL;VALUE=URI:https://www.rogaine.asn.au/events/eventdetail/811/-/go-west-virtualgaine?tm
pl=component
DESCRIPTION:
Go West is a virtual 4-hour rogaine in Western Creek, Canberra. I
t includes bush areas in the Molonglo River corridor, Mount Stromlo, Narrab
undah Hill and Cooleman Ridge, as well as the suburbs from Denman Prospect
to Fisher. The start location is at Duffy Oval, right in the centre of the
map.
The official virtual event ran between Saturday 28 May a
nd midnight on Monday 13 June. Congratulations to overall winner Christophe
r Bradley with Tim Cochrane close in second place. Full results at the link
below.
Go West Virtualgaine Results
While the
official event is finished, the course is still open. The course uses the M
apRun app on your phone or watch to record your visits to control sites; th
ere are no controls flags. The following links will provide you with PDF ve
rsions of the map, control descriptions and course setters notes. Make sure
you download all three documents.

version of the MapRun app installed on your phone. See the virtual events p
age for instructions and a link to download the app.
Brief notes
on the course
Please donwload and read the full course setters not
es too.
The start point is at Duffy oval, at the path junctio
n on the eastern side of the carpark where a short path leads to the amenit
ies building on the oval. The course has 45 controls worth a total of 2250
points. The controls are spread over a wider area than the 2021 Mount Ainsl
ie virtualgaine. The distance to clear the entire course is about 38 km. Yo
u may be able to get 2000 points for about 30 km travel. Because there are
no control flags, you'll need to navigate carefully and pay attention to th
e control descriptions, which give precise locations.
For a s
uccessful, safe and fair event:
- Keep out of private property. I
n particular, the area marked in purple on the west side of the map is expl
icitly out of bounds, so plan your route accordingly.
- The cycle and
running tracks at Stromlo Forest Park are also marked in purple and out of
bounds. Control 54 can be approached from the east or north via gates on Ur
iarra Road.
- Obviously residential land is also out of bounds – do no
t go across people’s gardens.
- Do not try to wade across the Molonglo
River. Access to controls 50, 74 and 100 is only via the bridges at 61 and
south of 50.
- Cross roads with care. Use crossings, underpasses or t
raffic lights where possible, especially on Hindmarsh Drive, John Gorton Dr
ive and Streeton Drive.
- In the Mount Stromlo area, watch out for mou
ntain bikes, and avoid using mountain bike tracks. Take care wherever bike
tracks cross the main tracks. In particular, be very careful if using the t
rack that goes NNE from 71 where it crosses the spur – bikes cross the trac
k very fast and are hidden by a tunnel.
- Cows grazing on Narrabundah
Hill have made the ground soft and muddy in May 2022, so take care approach
ing controls 60 and 80. The cows are reportedly friendly though.
- Apa
rt from your phone or watch running the MapRun app, GPS instruments, altime
ters and pedometers are not allowed. You may only use the map provided and
your compass.
- You must complete the course on foot. Bikes and other
means of transport are not allowed.
You’re responsible for your ow
n safety. So plan as you would normally for a run or bushwalk. Make sure yo
u carry enough water for your needs.
