OINK Day 3 Middle
Red (4.5 km)
The course started off in a section of very thick woods. I cut through the woods to 1, it probably would have been faster to go around. Error on 2. I hit the erosion gully I wanted and followed it north, but it was really shallow and seemed to peter out. I thought I had gone too far, so I turned around and went S a ways. Saw the field, so went out to confirm that I was on the right spur. I was. Followed the gully back up and found the flag past where I had stopped the first time, behind a pile of logs. Another error on 3. I hit the gully running N-S and thought I just had to go to the top to find the branch I wanted. But the circle was covering up the section of gully that continued past the branch I wanted. I was pretty confused for a bit until I finally saw the other gully on the map. After that I just took it slow through the rest of the green. The rest of the course went well, it was all in open areas/white woods, so very fast. Weather was great again!
