A successful ski orienteer combines high physical endurance, strength and excellent technical skiing skills with the ability to navigate and make the best route choices while skiing at a high speed. Standard orienteering maps are used, but with special green overprinting of trails and tracks to indicate their navigability in snow ; other symbols indicate whether any roads are snow-covered or clear. Navigation tactics is similar to mountain bike orienteering . Standard skate-skiing equipment is used, along with a map holder attached to the chest. Compared to cross-country skiing , upper body strength is more important because of double pooling needed along narrow snow trails.

edit Ski orienteering events
Ski orienteering events are designed to test both physical strength and navigation skills of the athletes. Ski orienteers use the map to navigate a dense ski track network in order to visit a number of control points in the shortest possible time. The track network is printed on the map, and there is no marked route in the terrain. The control points must be visited in the right order. The map gives all information the athlete needs in order to decide which route is the fastest, including the quality and width of the tracks. The athlete has to take hundreds of route choice decisions at high speed during every race: a slight lack of concentration for just a hundredth of a second may cost the medal. Ski orienteering is time-measured and objective. The clock is the judge: fastest time wins. The electronic card verifies that the athlete has visited all control points in the right order.

Ski Orienteering explained
Ski orienteering is a unique sport that combines orienteering with cross country ski racing. Races are held entirely on trails, although some competitors may choose to take shortcuts through the woods. Elite ski orienteers combine excellent map reading skills with great skiing, although the sport can accommodate any abilities of orienteering and skiing. Racers are presented a map at the start, and must find the designated controls in the correct order, as fast as possible. How you choose to get to each control is in your hands!
Equipment:
Wikipedia has an informative page on the equipment necessary for ski-o. The skiing equipment is the same as that used for cross country ski racing. Many competitors modify their poles to have very large baskets to deal with soft conditions on the narrow trails, since the narrow trails can't be groomed with a piston bully, so are softer than the wide trails. Orienteering equipment consists of the map holder, which attaches to the chest for hands-free map reading, and either the finger stick for electronic punching or a punch card, for pin punching. The punchcard is often pinned to the competitor's suit, and the finger stick (
