The Maple Leaf Forever
The rider enters the "stem" of the maple leaf and makes a 90 degree left hand
turn and proceeds forward into the first section of the course. The rider
makes a right hand 180 degree turn to the right around the pivot cone to
proceed in the opposite direction. The rider then makes a left turn
(approximately 45 degrees) to proceed into the second section of the course.
Another 180 degree right hand turn around the pivot cone to proceed in the
opposite direction. The rider then makes a left turn into the top section of the
maple leaf. The rider makes a 180 degree turn within the section in a counterclockwise direction. The rider then makes a left turn to enter the fourth
section of the course. Another 180 degree right turn around the pivot cone to
proceed in the opposite direction. A left turn to enter the final section of the
course. A 180 degree turn around the final pivot cone and a 90 degree left
turn to exit the stem to complete the course.
THIS COURSE MAY BE COMPLETED IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION.

Place a nail where the course is to begin, this is the 0’ mark. Measure from this point out
41’ and mark this point. At a right angle to the 0’ mark measure 30’6", these are your
baselines.
On the 41’ baseline make a mark at 5’, 10’, 15’, 20’, 25’, 30’, 35’, and 41’
On the 30’6" baseline make a mark at 5’, 10’, 15’, 20’, 25’, and 30’6"
From the baselines make the following marks using the triangle method.

To Form Circle:
Pull a tape from the 18’ mark of the 41’ baseline and from the 30’ mark of the 30’6"
baseline. Place a mark where these two tapes cross. Using the center mark for the circle
as a pivot pull a tape 10’. Starting at the mark that is at the 15’5" on the 41’ baseline and
20’ on the 30’6" baseline move counter clockwise and make a mark 2’2", from that mark
move 2’8", from that mark move 3", from that mark move 5", continue making marks at
3 foot intervals until circle is complete. Distance of final cones will be less that 3’.
