walking 1:30:00 [2] **
checking locations of controls on new permanent course at Hueston Woods State Park (lodge area). I'm calling this walking rather than orienteering since most of these locations were pretty easy and I had already visited them before the posts were installed.
trail building / maintenance 1:30:00 [2]
moving two permanent course posts which had been incorrectly installed. One was off by about 30 meters, the other by about 90.

trail building / maintenance 30:00 [3] *
moving permanent course post which had been incorrectly installed by boy scouts. Assisted by Tyler Hertel. Posts were 2 feet deep (approx .6 m) and set in concrete with a rebar cross piece, so we had to dig big holes both for removal and re-installation.

orienteering 27:28 [2] *** 2.0 km (13:44 / km)
4c weight:159lbs shoes: Jalas hi-top O' shoes
checking 4 new permanent course controls at Hueston Woods. Mostly about level 3 effort, but includes about 4:40 of walking to confirm placements (one post was installed incorrectly and will need to be moved or the map adjusted). drizzly, overcast day. rain had stopped but vegetation was wet and sky heavily overcast. I forgot to take my compass. Spiked 3 controls, but made a pretty major error on the 3rd of the 4.
orienteering 8:20 [4] *** 0.9 km (9:16 / km)
2c shoes: Jalas hi-top O' shoes
checked 2 more controls on permanent course.
