| 1. | Went to the wrong tree first. | ||||||
| 2. | Western (lower) trail. | ||||||
| 3. | Left around slash. | ||||||
| 4. | |||||||
| 5. | |||||||
| 6. | Seemed like there was a big unmapped trail after the second stream. Climbed hill a bit too far to the right, and had to go a bit left to find the control. | ||||||
| 7. | Misread trickle as veg. boundary, fumbled briefly, but saw trail above and figured it out. | ||||||
| 8. | |||||||
| 9. | |||||||
| 10. | Took indistinct trail right of the line, which turned out to be something I could drive my car on. | ||||||
| 11. | A little left of the line, crossed stream at junction, picked up faint trail at bend. Wonder if they dragged this barrel out into the woods just to have a control feature in a convenient place. | ||||||
| 12. | Oof. Stayed close to the line, bashed through the goldenrod in the field, got into the woods, went downhill until that got too tick and nasty, then went west into the other field and bashed some more goldenrod. Managed to not fall down. Crossed the fight/fence slightly W of the control. | ||||||
| 13. | Directly to the trail, followed it around into the gravel pit, short attack. | ||||||
| 14. | |||||||
| 15. | Up to trail, came in a bit too far S, had to climb back up to control. | ||||||
| 16. | |||||||
| 17. | Climbed a little though the field, climbed a little more on the trail, cut in at the same place I did on the sprint, and went right by the sprint control. Striaght through the woods, hit the stream somewhat borth of where I needed to be, but I was at a distinctive stream bend, went a little high and saw a control on pair of rootstocks, and had an easy attack from there. | ||||||
| 18. | Not so good. Contoured a bit right of the line, hit the faint trail, turned left, saw a control in a reentrant, and... not mine. #46, which sounded familiar. Looked to see if I had been there earlier, didn't see it on the cluesheet, and correctly guessesed taht it had been on the sprint, but I couldn't remember where it was. Guessed that I was on a reentrant I could see on the map, a couple of lines lower than I actually was, because the feature I was at was obscured by the control number. Attacked, went too high, hit the trail, circled around again, and got it on the second try. Two reentrant controls 45 m apart (one on a "ditch")... grumble... | ||||||
