SMOC - Heritage Park
Green course (which was pretty white with the fresh inch of snow).
Quite a diverse park (my first time there). There were several opportunities to mis punch (for me, anyways), but I managed to remember my first lesson in Orienteering to ALWAYS double check the control number :) Flushed out a pair of deer on the way to #2. I made it through the mess of trails between #9 and #10, with a bit of luck. Opted for the dry route to #12 around by the north, then got mild soakers while getting out of #12. As I said to the fellow following me, "this is neither the easy way nor the dry way to get out of here". Then I jumped in the freezing water up to my knees on the way to #14. "Inside NW corner" for #19 had me scratching my head, then I found it by the silo. I will have to brush up on my urban orienteering (even though this was a barn......)
It is always good to do a course at a new venue! Thanks!
