WELCOME TO THE 

JANE'S ISLAND

GPS ADVENTURE

Use your GPS to navigate all fifteen control points spread throughout the mainland portion of the Jane's Island State Park. Taken in order, the course is 2.4 miles long, although you can choose to visit any control points you wish, and in any order that suits you. Unlike a conventional orienteering course, if you encounter an obstacle, you can simply attempt another attack point. When you visit each point (currently a piece of pvc pipe painted yellow) look around and confirm your visit by answering the simple fill-in-the-blank answer. You can pick up a brochure at the camp store with the same information, for your convenience. 

 You can either download the coordinates here, or copy the data from the table.
