1. | 1226m | 18:25 | 33 | +8:11 | 80% | 58.9 | 15:01 | 1226m | 18:25 | 33 | +8:11 | 80% | 15:01 | Didn't know it at the time, but I followed same route as everyone else: NW across spur, down to river running N, look for large open earthbank and reentrant, cross river at flooded crossing point, and up opposing spur, to skirt S-trending reentrants all the way to #1. Don't know why PG, Soupbone and others blew this leg. | ||||||||||||||||||||
2. | 742m | 13:03 | 30 | +5:59 | 85% | 55.8 | 17:35 | 1968m | 31:28 | 31 | +13:09 | 72% | 15:59 | S/H headed S instead of W to trail as I did. W trail turned out to be flooded and rutted from heavy horse use: difficult footing. Nevertheless others took 16-17 minutes on this leg. | ||||||||||||||||||||
3. | 400m | 8:29 | 35 | +4:52 | 135% | 44.7 | 21:12 | 2368m | 39:57 | 30 | +16:10 | 68% | 16:52 | Worked my way E on spur, to break through green to #3 in reentrant in sunny open; nice views as I left control | ||||||||||||||||||||
4. | 1256m | 25:50 | 47 | +14:12 | 122% | 47.4 | 5:00 | 20:34 | 3624m | 1:05:47 | 41 | +29:37 | 82% | 18:09 | Lazy route choices cost many minutes; s/h run more directly along purple line from #3 instead of my route S to trail, then trail run/walk all the way to reentrant system containing #4. | |||||||||||||||||||
5. | 363m | 5:17 | 46 | +2:55 | 123% | 50.8 | 14:33 | 3987m | 1:11:04 | 41 | +32:02 | 82% | 17:49 | Easy compass to big reentrant system. | ||||||||||||||||||||
6. | 215m | 4:00 | 48 | +2:18 | 135% | 45.0 | 18:36 | 4202m | 1:15:04 | 42 | +33:56 | 82% | 17:51 | Another easy compass leg | ||||||||||||||||||||
7. | 152m | 2:09 | 51 | +1:16 | 143% | 45.0 | 14:08 | 4354m | 1:17:13 | 42 | +35:05 | 83% | 17:44 | Run down to cliff. Mike there dispensing refreshments - one of the all-time best water controls. | ||||||||||||||||||||
8. | 395m | 6:08 | 47 | +3:14 | 111% | 49.0 | 15:31 | 4749m | 1:23:21 | 43 | +38:19 | 85% | 17:33 | Hesitant plunge back into green from second loop in trail. Saw intermittant trail, and tried to find it on way out. | ||||||||||||||||||||
9. | 323m | 15:21 | 56 | +12:32 | 445% | 18.8 | 10:00 | 9:15 | 47:31 | 5072m | 1:38:42 | 44 | +50:51 | 106% | 19:27 | Biggest error: wandered off the map after I became confused in first reentrant system - stream was flowing E, instead of running off southern cliff as I expected. | ||||||||||||||||||
10. | 1985m | 36:44 | 42 | +18:54 | 106% | 50.3 | 6:00 | 18:30 | 7057m | 2:15:26 | 44 | +1:09:45 | 106% | 19:11 | Demoralized. Blindly followed trail up unnecessary contours instead of staying low as PG did here. But after passing #2 my route was ok. | |||||||||||||||||||
11. | 623m | 11:59 | 42 | +5:49 | 94% | 52.4 | 3:00 | 19:14 | 7680m | 2:27:25 | 44 | +1:15:34 | 105% | 19:11 | Again, too much wandering; s/h walked NE from #10 directly on purple line. | |||||||||||||||||||
12. | 134m | 1:00 | 50 | +35 | 140% | 46.1 | 7:27 | 7814m | 2:28:25 | 44 | +1:15:54 | 105% | 18:59 | A beaten man: in to final punch in center of circle of flags. A memorable run and day on Green for first time in ~4 years? |
