The 2013 California Army National Guard Best Warrior Competition is being held at Camp San Luis Obispo Sept. 10-13, 2012. So far the physical fitness and readiness tests are done. Day land navigation is happening right now. The troops have three hours to find as many of the seven points available on their personal map course. Each troop starbursts from the starting point, sometimes crisscrossing other or could end up at opposite ends of this vast course. Competitors are not allowed any assistance, GPS devices or smartphones. It is critical they get to know the terrain, as they will return later for the night portion where only three points need to be found. (Army National Guard photo/Master Sgt. Paul Wade)
