| 1. | +02:00 | Got there late so little preparation before starting. Went straight line on a rough bearing figuring the field would lead me in. Never saw the field so had to look around a bit. Came in from the S using the distant road and building to tell where I was. | |||||
| 2. | Straight to road, then cut over to trails by the building. Went by #14 on the way. | ||||||
| 3. | SW to trail, then NW thru saddle and up reentrant. | ||||||
| 4. | Straight | ||||||
| 5. | Straight to road. Field looked thorny so east to get to open woods. Headed toward building, but it looked private so I veered right to pass W of it. Came in from the trail jct N of the control. Distracted by other control nearby. | ||||||
| 6. | Straight to the trail jct near the stream. Noting the location of 12 along the way. Trail around then up the reentreant. | ||||||
| 7. | +00:30 | Short leg so ran hard hoping for a good split. Could not find the bag when I got there. It was hidden behind whatever it was hung on. | |||||
| 8. | +00:40 | Down to trail by the stream. Followed trail until it started uphill, then the stream. Up the hill to the control but had some trouble finding it. I was looking for a cliff not the fence it was on. | |||||
| 9. | Trail to bend then dogleg in. | ||||||
| 10. | +03:00 | And out again. Cut off of trail hoping to hit #10 on the way down. Did not see it and had to run along he bottom looking for the right rocks and climb back up. | |||||
| 11. | Down then up. | ||||||
| 12. | Down the hill again. Trail along the river to the end of the clearning then up the reentrant. | ||||||
| 13. | Straight, then used the nearby building to locate the control. | ||||||
| 14. | Did not see a good way across the field to followed the path of the earlier runners. From the parking lot, took the same trail to 14 that I had used earlier while running by it on the way to #2. | ||||||
| 15. | Straight. | ||||||
| 16. | Angle to trail, down and along the bottom of the hill. Climb back up when I could see the ruin. | ||||||
| F. | Straight thru the light green. Not a very fast run. |
