Operational Policy
Operational policy Visitor management Orienteering and rogaining in QPWS-managed areas Operational policies provide a framework for consistent application and interpretation of legislation and for the management of non-legislative matters by the Environmental Protection Agency (incorporating the Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service). Operational policies are not intended to be applied inflexibly in all circumstances. Individual circumstances may require a modified application of policy. Policy subject This policy outlines the circumstances in which the Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service (QPWS) may authorise and manage the conduct of orienteering and rogaining activities on QPWS-managed areas. Background While QPWS-managed areas provide a range of opportunities for different visitor activities, not all activities can be accommodated, as requirements for conserving natural and cultural values and other considerations including impacts on other uses, management programs, priority community needs and equity dictate against some activities. Orienteering and rogaining activities vary from relatively informal, small scale gatherings to large scale championship or carnival events. Such events can give rise to a range of issues and impacts, including damage to vegetation, disturbance of wildlife and possible disruption of other visitor activities. Further information on these activities is contained in Attachment 1. The particular scale and format of an event or events will determine the extent to which impacts are concentrated or dispersed across the landscape. Particular environments have different conservation and cultural significance and are more or less sensitive (resistant and/or resilient) to particular types, frequencies and intensities of use. Each of these factors will be critical in identifying the risks associated with proposed orienteering and rogaining activities, and in assessing and determining applications to conduct such activities. -

Clothing List: Rock Climbing Day Trip
CLOTHING LIST: ROCK CLIMBING DAY TRIP When selecting clothing, an important consideration is the material. Cotton clothing does not keep you warm if it is wet and it takes a very long time to dry. This can be desirable on a hot, sunny day but can mean hypothermia on a cool, cloudy, breezy day. Wool and synthetic fabrics dry quickly and will keep you warm, even if they are wet. Several layers of clothing made of these materials are best. This allows you to add or remove layers as your activity level and the temperature change throughout the day. If you do not have everything on the list we encourage you to borrow items from Carolina Outdoor Education’s surplus clothing bin. We have rain gear and warm layers available. Make sure and let your Instructors know what you need at the pre-trip meeting. * - Indicates items available from Carolina Outdoor Education FOOTWEAR Approach Shoes: You will need lightweight hiking boots or sturdy tennis shoes for the steep, rocky approach to the climbing site. Tennis shoes can be used for climbing, as well. *Climbing shoes: Bring them, if you have them. We have some you can borrow, as well. CLOTHING T shirt: You will want a short sleeve shirt for climbing. *Warm layer: Medium or heavy-weight shirt or sweater made of fleece or wool. (WEATHER DEPENDENT) *Rain layer: You should bring raingear, in case we are caught in a storm and to help keep you warm. Pants/shorts: Dress for the weather. You may want to have a warm pair of pants over shorts, so you can adjust for the weather and activity level. -

Xc Ski Racing Plus
XC SKI RACING PLUS XC ski racing is fun… right? Well, what about ski racing with your brain turned on? That’s ski orienteering! What’s the difference? In xc skiing, the course is marked to tell you where to go – just apply the horsepower. In Ski-O, you still have to apply the horsepower, but you have to decide where to go while doing it. How does it work? At the start, you’re given a map of your course, like the map shown here. The pink circles represent control points that you must visit, in the right order, as fast as you can. The solid lines are wide, skateable trails, and dashed lines are narrower trails where you can only double pole. Knowing your relative strength as a skier affects your route choices – how would YOU go from #10 to #11 on this map? What do you do at the controls? At each control, there is a flag to mark the spot. To record that you’ve been there, you “punch” with an electronic recording device, worn on your finger. It makes a beep, and when you finish, the officials download the data from your finger stick and give you instant Equipment: results and your splits between all To carry your map, you use a map holder that mounts to controls. your chest, so that the map is always right in front of you, and can be rotated to align it with the direction you’re skiing. Races are freestyle, so most skiers use race skate skis. Poles are modified to have larger baskets to deal with the soft snow on narrow trails. -
