GCO a-meet red. The terrain was pretty great, basically running a 10k across lumpy mowed grass. I think it took 5-6 km before I actually touched any vegetation, and that includes grass over the ankle socks. This all meant very straight route choices reading contours, but it wasn't boring, and just what I was in the mood for.

Event: GCO: California Orienteering Week (COW), Part 2
 

In SF for the last couple days. Pretty busy with a new game at work, also GDC this week. Also hotel housekeeping did me the favor of throwing away the clothes I had in my room yesterday.

Ski-o in Prosser with Dad around the trails from Saturday. Conditions were pretty terrible, I never dragged the tires on Saturday because of the powder, so it was just the snowmobile tread. It wasn't bulletproof icy, but not really smooth either. Also lots of other snowmobiles had been through in the last three days, so lots of bonus trails. Fortunately it wasn't a big area, so by the fifth or sixth map exchange I had the real trails vs fake trails pretty well figured out and it got cleaner and fun. I'd say about half of it was whee-ski-o! and half was omg I'm gonna die and half was wtf is this trail? Good times.

C • Half and half and half 2

Morning ski around glenshire, on the tracks we set Saturday plus lots of others from snowshoes and skis and snowmobiles. Everything was still pretty bumpy.

Afternoon ski with Carol up to Drifter while mom and dad took James.
