Event Description

The first annual Mt Hood Orienteering urban metrogaine will take place in Beaverton, OR on May 4th, 2025. You choose one of three courses (8-hours, 4-hours, or 2-hours) and claim as many points as possible by finding virtual controls with different point values. Each control site is shown on your map and the MapRun® phone app indicates when you find each control site. The app keeps track of your times and tracks your routes for your post event analysis.
