Discussion: Red 5-6

Did you take the lower trail over to the control?
Looking at all results, I lost a lot of time on this but I was always moving...just through the woods.

I also lost a bunch of time here - mostly contouring, with some, limited hesitation. I suspect drop to trail, or climb then contour would've been better than straight line, as the runnability on the straight line was pretty bad. I noticed on the relay that climb & contour (even w/o hitting the trail) was more runnable, which you can kind-of see on the map esp. on the SW half of the leg.

I had a slow start leaving the control (#5) going up a bit. I saw Erik dropped down and had clear woods to the trail.
I did the same thing on the Relay going backwards, drifted up and went straight. It seamed easier going in that direction.... maybe because I knew where I was headed.
