6. | +05:00 | Everything was going fine about halfway to the control, then I lost track and circled around with a blank look on my face, probably drooling and babbling to myself. Finally relocated on the pond SE of the conrol, and I had to stand in the middle and take a compass shot to find the control. | |||||
7. | +00:30 | Got to the hill just south of the control, and stood there squinting at the map for a moment to make sure I was really where I thought I was, before going down there. | |||||
8. | +00:30 | Got to the circle, but visibility was low, and it took me a bit to figure out which thing was the knoll. | |||||

11. | To the right of the pond, cutting off the first swampy arm on beaver dams, and crossing the second (blue) one because the water level was so low. Basically, I went pretty close to straight. | ||||||

15. | Got close, then climbed a hill to get a better view and figure out where I was, and was pleased to find the control there. (I sat on this very hill taking splits at the 1992 World Cup final.) | ||||||

17. | +00:30 | Got real close, and even saw the depression, but didn't see the control in it until I looped back from a different direction. | |||||
18. | +00:30 | I was making really good time, I guess, but crossing between the big marsh and the tiny marsh just before the control, I crashed real hard, and it seemed like an eternity before I could drag myself up off the ground and limp to the control. I've got a nasty bruise on my left thigh as a souvenir. | |||||
