Powder Mill Park Red - ok event, but a bit disappointing after Letchworth. Appears I lost a great deal of time on the second control - 5 minutes...
Probably a couple minutes crossing the swamp, I missed the trail, and went off for a bit. When I climbed the hill, I went too high and overshot where the control was, and then the apparent slight misplacement meant I didn't see it when I was where I thought it should be. Bad map reading and then bad strategy.
Wasn't pleased with my route to 7, but In the moment I couldn't see a better one... Randy and I took opposite routes and came out within seconds of each other. I'd probably have been faster with more road effort, but I thought I could miss the flag that way.
