NOTES

About Interclubs
Interclub events are our annual competition with WaggaRoos. As with all our events, they’re open to everyone and cater to all abilities. Points are awarded to each competitor for starting, completing a course and gaining a podium finish. The points are tallied at the end of the year and the club with the most points wins the North East South West Interstate Challenge Cup (and who wouldn’t want to win something with a name like that!).
Terrain
Located within Albury, Nail Can Hill was mined for gold in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s. Some relics of its gold mining history remain, spread amongst the gullies and patches of rock that feature on this map.
