Run 55:00 5.14 km (10:43 / km) +177m 9:08 / km
shoes: Inov-8G 260 Mudclaw
Yay for daylight savings time!!
Haven't been to Chemung for a while, so decided to run the trails there. Was surprised by how much snow was still in the woods, but there's not a lot of south-facing open slopes. A few truly icy spots, as opposed to hard packed snow. Even with the temps into the 60s snow wasn't really soft along the boot-packed monorail.
Adequate grip on the ice - combinationof warm temps softening it up and the wonders of Inov-8's miraculous graphene sole material (maybe).

Mapping 5:49:00 [0] 13.0 km (26:51 / km) +119m 25:41 / km
Assessment and mapping at Hollis Town Forest. Nice trail network, found some mtn bike trails that didn't get picked up in OSM. These were fairly straight (forward), not a lot of let's twist back and forth to get as much distance as we can in the smallest possible area. Will help for the lower level courses, but make setting the higher courses a tad more difficult to avoid trail runs, etc.
Some nice open areas, some knee high blueberry areas, some thicker and really ticker spots.
Felt similar to Townsend and Beaver Brook for vegetation and topography. (Well duh, Jim - it's not too far from either of those maps.)
