SoSOL3 - 2009/10Gullane Dunes, 7 March
Huge numbers of people went to the final event of this busy weekend, including many ESOC members.
The third South of Scotland Orienteering League event of 2010 was organised by ELO, and took place on the East Lothian coast at Gullane. The area includes open complex dunes, mature pine woods and complicated paths through thick scrub, with some challenging navigation. Felling has changed part of the area quite dramatically in the last couple of years. The weather remained bright and dry, and there were some very fast runs.
The original SoSOL3 was to be held at Dalguise, near Dunkeld, but had to be postponed due to snow.

Brown (63 competitors) – Andrew Dalgleish 10th
