About terraloco Check out the terraloco Slideshow (PDF) What it is terraloco is a small business managed by Rex Winterbottom dedicated to providing enjoyable map navigation activities in beautiful parks! If you like to take an easy hike or go for a vigorous run, I can provide you with fun and challenging courses on interesting maps. See the schedule page to find information about public events and the services page for information regarding small group outings, consulting, training, and mapmaking. History I started terraloco in June 2008. After 12 years of experience volunteering, directing events, and setting courses with the Bay Area Orienteering Club, I was inspired to build on the offerings of the club and add more opportunities for map navigation practice and training. I am mapping new areas and planning and directing training events in local parks. Some events will feature novel trials or competition with less of a focus on training and more of a focus on personal performance. And, I'm continuing to volunteer with the club.   About Rex I am originally from Dearborn, Michigan. Besides being fascinated with maps from an early age, I enjoy being creative and working with people. Teaching for 10 years at Corpus Christi School in Oakland gave me some rich experiences working with a community of staff, parents, and students. I've volunteered and dj'ed at KALX radio in Berkeley since 1999. Occasionally, I dj at local bars and clubs as well, playing many styles of music from older funk, rock, and soul to the newest fashions in dance music. In college at U.C. Berkeley, I volunteered in student ministry at the Catholic campus center at Newman Hall Holy Spirit parish, helping organize student retreats and activities. In addition to running with and without maps, I love to play ultimate frisbee. During this "new career" I am continuing to teach.
