Run warm up/down 5:32 intensity: (23 @0) + (4:27 @1) + (27 @2) + (15 @3) 0.54 km (10:16 / km) +6m 9:44 / km

After 2+ hours of downhill skiing, decided I needed to run off some more energy.
Had planned ahead and brought running stuff to change into and a green map.
The 500 m to the start was a nice warmup.

Orienteering 1:03:33 intensity: (3:30 @0) + (3:37 @1) + (22:25 @2) + (34:01 @3) 4.75 km (13:22 / km) +129m 11:46 / km

Was pleased to see some foot prints that weren't mine at the start and throughout the course, They were on green as well, as those same footprints were at every control.
Took some different routes for legs that were the same as Brown, but it sure looks different in daylight.
Lost 3:30 on control 13 as I'd dropped my phone somewhere along the way. Was using an old deactivated phone for timing purposes - wanted to confirm that having an active cell signal is not necessary for iOrienteering timing. After scanning at #12, slipped it into the pocket on my water-bottle belt. When I saw #13, reached down to have it ready, but it wasn't there. Muttered a few choice words, then turned around to retrace my steps. Glad I knew I only had to backtrack to the prior control. The 1" of crusty snow on the ground made it simpler - without my footprints retracing my exact route would have been tough. Made it all the way back to 12, without seeing it, then back towards 13 - about 50 m and there it was. Improved slightly on a couple of micro-route choices from my first pass.
All in all, another wonderful day to be out in the woods.

Run warm up/down 5:31 intensity: (1:02 @0) + (4:23 @1) + (6 @3) 0.53 km (10:28 / km)

And back to the truck. Glad I left dry stuff to change into at the start / finish.

XC Ski - Skate 1:00:30 intensity: (46 @0) + (7:47 @1) + (26:21 @2) + (25:15 @3) + (21 @4) 9.77 km (6:12 / km) +122m 5:50 / km

They'd run a roller around behind a snowmobile on Friday morning, but most of the 'corduroy' from that had been skied out. Underlying lumpiness from the remains of the 36" of beautiful stuff that mostly melted and then froze solid made for some challenges. Quite a few folks out.

Mtn Bike 21:25 intensity: (2:48 @0) + (5:50 @1) + (12:11 @2) + (36 @3) 2.42 km (8:50 / km) +93m 7:25 / km
ahr:126 max:143 shoes: Reid Hercules Green bike

Some lunch then swapped over to fat bike - mostly as a fun and faster way to get out to where I wanted to do some map updates from last summer's logging.
Trails were bullet-proof, but still lumpy on a bike.
Went up the S-curve on Maple - had skied to the top of it earlier, then turned around and headed back the other way - a wise choice. A few rocks and dirt clumps sticking up, plenty of lumps and the reverse camber on the curve was more pronounced than normal.

Mapping 52:12 intensity: (51:21 @0) + (31 @1) + (20 @3) 1.09 km (47:48 / km) +55m 38:10 / km

Gunstock Map Refinement
This being on a NE facing slope, the snow was a bit deeper and less set up than I expected. Still ok on foot, but the occasional deeper spot.
Decisions to be made - what will end up being a 'ride', what is rough open, and what is rough open with scattered trees...
Sight lines are opened up considerably in many places, and the openness will make sending Orange runners into this area more feasible.
Lot's of animal tracks - deer and on down in size.

Mtn Bike 14:36 intensity: (4:28 @0) + (4:34 @1) + (4:38 @2) + (56 @3) 3.54 km (4:08 / km)
ahr:117 max:133 shoes: Reid Hercules Green bike

And back on the bike for the ride back. Feeling chilled - so didn't do some additional side trails as I'd been thinking about.

Got the Start / Finish flag and instruction sheet with QR codes set out. Then did the brown course as a night-O. Some bobbles and imprecision - headlamp only lets me see out so far, and the occasional reflection from leaves right in front of my face with resulting temp blindness seems like the right excuse.
Missed #4 just off to the right coming through the thicker stuff. Misread the boulder I was planning for the attackpoint. Got to a line of hunter dots - small reflectors and took it the wrong way. Relocated off uphill rootstock.
#8 - longer leg was off to the right, got onto the wrong linear logging cut and wasn't paying enough attention to my compass. When I relocated, took a sub-optimal route - should have kept going and attacked from the NE, rather than circling S to come in from my initial approach plan.
Pleased with the course - a fine way to spend an evening.

Run warm up/down 4:46 intensity: (52 @0) + (14 @1) + (3:35 @2) + (5 @3) 0.53 km (9:04 / km)
