Jens drew up a map adventure on cal topo map builder with no contours (what is used in Florida). Tried to solely rely on the map and think like I would think in a race. Breaking through the snow and breaking trail got to be tiring! Got pretty cold by the end.

A lot of snow out there! Broke trail. Workout was 30m warmup, 1:1 x10 and do it 2 times. I think the middle 30 did me in. I was freezing at the end.

Fatbike ride at ILRA. When I first started, conditions were great, and after about 90 minutes, the snow seemed a lot slicker. Realized while riding it's great sand practice.

Jens FTW!

Angel and I did a map adventure on a cal topo map that he created for us. In Angel's wisdom, he did it, although provided a usgs as well.

Wanted to write this up in particular because some of the challenges faced could be repeated in Florida. Angel and I took turns.

I had the first, and on the map doesn't look like a parallel, but it was! Had to hop to the next spur over. In this instance, the trail was accurate.

Took the trail to #2, and Angel nailed it!

On to 3, climbed the trail (sledding hill!) to the top of the hill then went W, there were a lot of game trails in the area and sorted them out to the point.

4 was pretty straightforward. One thing to note is the white areas very well can be marsh, And, landed more northbound, which I don't get, but corrected and got over to the water and around to the point.

To 5, got through the 500ishm green sort of OK, and landed about 50m south of where I wanted to be. Strava shows a trail in there??? Then, on the cal topo map and sort of on the USGS it shows a marsh. We checked O range, and we were within I think under 100m...but looks very different on the map in AP, and strava. We didn't keep going because it was a thick marsh. Should have gone around to the hill we saw and see what O Range would have done with that? My mistake.

Six and beyond got really confusing because of our wonderful glacial goodness. Going to 7 I wondered about going cross country, but realized dumping to a trail would be best. I got very confused when 1) there was a bi marsh where I thought to attack and 2) the trail was just so back and forth. I think the lesson learned on this point is who knows what will be there, and 2) stick with the trail a little longer and think big picture more, especially on a 1:24k.

Going to 8 was just as tricky with the glacial goodness.

Getting to 9 once we were where I wanted us to be on the trail, I had to stop and think for a bit on which spur to go for. The one I wanted seemed hidden, but got there. The marsh wasn't mapped except for a big white area.

Going to 10, and the trail that was a good idea was a bit more twisty turny. Knowing where we were and tracking with pace count is good in this situation.

My take aways:

Big, big picture on cal topo
Double check what you think would be a reliable location and try to use it for bearing/pace count.
Sometimes on the trails, need to go a bit further for it to moderate.
