easter day 2 @ the murdering shed; much better than yesterday. some of the erosion features were bigger than I was expecting. I found that I ran along the spurs well though I dropped down too early to #5 and had to follow the creek for a while. made a silly mistake on #10 by not trusting myself, I came into a gully perfectly but thought I was too low and went further up the gully before crossing it only to backtrack to the control. #13 involved another stupid mistake, I didn't orientate my map correctly and went down into the wrong gully.

easter day 1 @ isaacs ridge; absolutely terrible. lack of bush orienteering showed and I lost contact on the way to #1. wasn't planning where I was going and just ran around like an idiot, then stopped to try and locate myself and concentrated more on telling myself to find myself than actually finding myself. #4 was the first control that I navigated well to. the rest was better but not great

Event: #NIN3DAYS
 

easter prologue; mostly good, I lost time on #2 trying to find a construction fence on the map that wasn't there and took a slightly long route to #3. also made a fairly major blunder on #11 by going down a path too early and ending up between the wrong buildings. otherwise decent just slow.
