Bubble explorer

Description
Entarînement.scorePlan a course and increase the size of the circles. The control is not in the middle of the circle. The runners can go to one or more “circles”. They must find the control by exploring the area in the circle, put it on the map and give its definition in text or in IOF symbol

Alternative
Make the bubbles a little larger and give a clue to find the control (point symbol, intersection …)

Comment 
For this exercise, the young runners should do maximum 3 circles before coming back to check that they can put the control on the map

They can be useful to learn the legend and symbols in a fun way or for an injured runner to help him to be patient
