Colin?
Kelsi!
I...hello!
Give me your coordinates.
The ground should be like a bunch of straight, red lines.
Where are you?

There's numbers.
Give me a number.

Time to orient.
Are you sure we're going the right way?
It's like finding a needle in a haystack.
Hey, two-minute warning!
This is where my true competition comes out.
Did you guys see the bear?
-Wait, what? No. Where? -Yeah, right there.
-Oh, what? -Joke's on you.
Oh, my gosh, I totally believed you.
Here, let's blow up this bridge
so that they can't get over it.
No one said orienteering
was gonna be a cakewalk.
They're hot on our trail.
We gotta be quick about this.
Hi, welcome to orienteering.
My name is Bob Forgrave
from Cascade Orienteering Club.
Cascade is one of 60 orienteering clubs,
so you can go all over the country
and enjoy this sport.
What is orienteering?
Orienteering is the sport
of navigating with a map.
Orienting the map so it matches what's on the ground.
Where is the "You Are Here" sign?
That skill is so important,
we named the sport after it,
and orienteering maps
are some of the most detailed maps in the world.
Oh, stumps.
-Stumps. -I saw those.
Because it's more detailed,
you can put more features on it.
You would find things mapped like a boulder.
So there are the two trees.
-And there are the two trees. -Yeah, that's it!
And going from one place to another,
you don't have to use the same route as everyone else.
I think that it's somewhere...
Oh, animal farm.
Let's--I mean, we gotta check it out.
Oh my gosh, there's goats.
And so, what you're looking for
is markers like that behind us.
Some clubs have something called e-punching
which is something that fits on your finger
and you stick it in a box on top of the control.
Let me assist you.
That's a satisfying beeep.
When you get to the finish, you get a printout
that tells you how long it took
to get to each one of these controls.
So, do you have to have
previous education or knowledge
coming into an orienteering event,
or can you just like show up?
Yeah, anyone can do it.
We've got multiple levels of courses
all the way from beginner which is super simple,
you know, for real young families...
With a graduate degree.
-I mean... -Me!
...up to courses that do require
a significant amount of navigation.
Course one, please.
That's the most intro, correct?
What sort of things do you need
to just go on a basic orienteering course?
What you need to bring with you,
since it's a hike,
is sensible shoes and layers.
Did you bring your climbing shoes?
Everything else you can get at the event.
There will be a map provided.
I'll give them to you now,
but you don't look at your map
until after you punch start.
And you go point to point through that course
in a certain order.
I think on the map, it's by a building,
and there's a building right there,
so it's probably like this way.
I think I see it, I see it, I see it!
Yes!
If you want a compass,
you can typically get one at the club.
But you don't necessarily have to know how to use a compass?
No, in fact, I'd say most people come into this
not knowing anything about using a compass.
Which way is north? Ready, go.
What is happening? Grow your nails out.
Do you have any idea where we are?
If you turn it enough, the map will tell you.
Three to the right.
North is back that way.
You just got oriented.
Phewww! So glad you asked that question.
We've been spending some time with the compass.
Thing is like a Rubik's Cube.
How long do these events typically last?
Are we talking ten minutes, ten hours?
I would say if your course takes less than 30 minutes,
maybe you want to try a more difficult course
and some more challenging navigation.
Do you think it's over here somewhere?
If it took two hours, that's usually a sign
that you want to try something a little easier.
They probably have a good sense of direction, right?
Better than us?
-Gus. -You gonna help us?
Do you know how to work a GPS?
Follow-up question to that then:
How often do people get lost?
There are different degrees of lost.
-Are we lost? -We can forage for berries.
Are we lost? I need to wash my socks.
Where are you? Kelsi?
We gotta find some civilization soon,
or otherwise I'm gonna revert back
to my primitive roots.
So, why do people come out and do this?
It's an exciting way
to explore parks.
Ouch! Sticky.
The map that you have isn't just a map of the park.
It's a tour set out by someone
who came in advance
to find interesting things along the way.
Ooh, water.
Are we ready to explore this park?
-Yeah. -Yeah, let's do it.
♪
(whistle blows)
Um, we're looking for a single tree.
Don't let Elena and Anna see us.
Let's go this way.
Pro tip: Do not get hit.
Yes, yes!
We got our first one!
Don't be fooled.
Just because there's a place to check in
doesn't mean it's on your course.
No, it's 121.
Wait, why, is that wrong?
Dang it.
(sobs)
(camera whirs)
Memento.
(laughs)
-Ah, I see it. -Oh, nice.
We got it. Oh wait, what is...
What the heck?
"Hope you're enjoying nature
as much as we are enjoying winning.
#HaveAGreatSummer."
I think they've been here.
That certainly looks like a boundary of vegetation.
Vegetation, difficult to run, fight.
-Don't fight there. -It's gotta be like right there.
-Go around. -Yeah, let's do it.
Yeah, that's what we're looking at!
Rock and roll.
If I do say so myself, that was some good orienting.
Got a runner.
We gotta make up for lost time.
-This is fun! -This is really fun.
I like this.
-Colin! -No way!
-Seriously, come on. -Oh, yeah!
Yes!
Get it, get it, get it.
All right. Yes!
Go!
-I see it! -You see it?
What is this?
Seriously?
"Second place is first losers.
Look like you could use some energy."
Very funny.
Well, joke's on them.
I could use one of these.
Bob, let's get down to brass tacks here.
What are we gonna win if we win the orienteering race?
Any prizes out there?
Wait, wait, Kelsi, look.
First, we got first!
"Congratulations.
This is the only trophy you'll be winning today.
Love you."
Well, bragging rights are pretty big.
-They're being, like, mean. -I know.
-Those are big. -Yeah, because if you know
that you not only collected the whole set,
got all those controls out there...
-I'm keeping the trophy. -There's one right there.
...but you got faster than anyone else,
that's some pretty serious stuff.
We're so close.
Look at her go.
I can feel the victory.
♪
-Yes! -Yes!
Nice, nice, nice!
-We orienteered! -We won!
-Okay, okay, stop. -We're the best!
"Team Lost (Then Found)."
Pretty accurate.
See, one was rough.
Yeah, was it over that way?
Yeah, how many times did you guys find one
and you were like, "Yes!"
Not the right number!
-Twice--half the time. -About like three times.
-Or more. -So frustrating.
I went on a serious emotional rollercoaster.
-Really? -I laughed, I cried...
