All racers meet at the Machete Flats Landing (See "Directions Tab"), paddle to Ward Creek, and  start at the START buoy on the Machete Flats Course (see map below).  

All racers go upstream from the Start Buoy and turn left around the Turn 1 Buoy. Then go downstream and turn left around the Turn 2 Buoy. 

Short Course racers then proceed directly to the Finish.
