Finding the overlook
Here's a successful coursework assignment: Our Intro to CLE map readers find the Mt Harris overlook.
There's no trail to this beauty spot, just a deer run in the woods, and you only know you're there when you look up and can see the pond. The students get only an eight-figure UTM grid reference, and must find it by pacing and using bearings and orienteering.
Some groups find it the first try. Others need to come back the next class and find it.
