Orienteering is an exciting sport that involves using a map and compass over various terrain to find hidden “control points.”  Originally an exercise for the military, the sport originated in the Scandinavian countries in the 19th century.  In the United States, clubs across the country host orienteering events and competitions throughout the year.
