Race Evaluation

BOK: Raven Rock, Day 1: Blue

Tundra/Desert

1.
2. Bad compass work
Hesitated
+01:20		Missed high, turned around, stopped, found it to my 5 o'clock. None of that would have happened were the bag visible.
3.
4. People with a dog on the trail.
5. Same dog, same trail.
6. Bad map reading
+00:15		Missed the bag right (was at where the spur becomes green).
7. Hesitated
+00:30		Hesitated to push through the SVGL (single vertical green lines) and went left to MG. Bad choice.
8. Did not like map
+00:15		Another, unmapped ditch, N of the control. Stopped.
9. Lacked confidence
+00:25		Explored the view down/N from the E-W spur a bit before descending.
10. Did not plan ahead
+01:30		Went way W along the S bank of the creek before crossing it. Thought I was on the NW-directed part of the creek. Went N up the white part of the spur. It was good running; the time was lost on the perpendicular (creek) part of the leg, and on the creek crossing.
11.
12. Bad map reading
+01:00		Leaving the trail NE of the control, I thought I had successfully identified the DVGL trees and was going to follow their boundary into the bag. I was wrong on the identification (it was MFGT rather than DVGL), and also sliced through the DVGL like it was OW. Up to a point. Finally, found myself in the middle of the DVGL, and slowly walked over the VGL's into the bag (should have just bailed S of the DVGL and followed the DVGL-SVGL boundary into the bag. Boundary, yeah.)
13. +00:25Crossed the creek through the water rather than on a bridge, to cool off the tendon.
14. Bad compass work
+00:15		Missed high, coming from just before a bend in the RDL.
15. Bad compass work
+00:20		Hit the SW-NE RDL too wide. Should have trusted the off-map MG; it really appeared MG from a distance.
