I did it very conservatively to be safe (relative to getting disoriented) and finished just over two hours and I am pleased with that. My goal was to start and complete the course in the time limit of three hours.

When I started I totally screwed up. I should have promptly gone back to the start triangle and try again. But, stupidly, I didn't. So I was pretty well lost (a dirty 4-letter word) when I tried to get back to the start. Eventually, after starting over at the start triangle, I got to Control #1 in 48 minutes. After that I orienteered pretty decently for me.

I spent two hours on the model map for the Middle and Long. I learned some important things about the terrain and got an idea of what I will have to do tomorrow.
