OPEX will be happening in Buffalo, NY this year.

NOPEX only starts in Sudbury. It then moves to North Bay, Cobalt, Cochrane, Kapuskasing, Timmins, etc... The point of NOPEX is to explore Northern Ontario. =]

Good luck with your event. All the best.

This will be the first OPEX I will attend. Yay.

yes info will be posted for those who have authorized access. People who RSVP and plan on attending will also be given some information.

Just a reminder to all: OPEX is *not* a UER event, and explorers worldwide who are not UER members are welcome to join.
