NAOC Middle - Green X on Adams Creek map in Delaware Water Gap. FR and details later. Nine minutes of errors according to AP but good for 5th in M55. Pretty challenging for everyone.

Red course at Cole Hill SF. New map based on lidar and the magic of Eddie B. Nice course by Phil H-T with several longish route choice legs. Some really fine open woods in places. Wet woods from earlier rain but it was partly sunny and near 60F while I was running. Off line a bit on #1 and #3 and lost about 30 seconds on each. Wasn't careful in the vegetation at #10 and lost a minute or so. Took pretty straight routes on most legs, just deviating enough to miss vegetation or marshes. Straightline distance 6.4 k.

At Wakpominee. Checking out the sprint terrain. A crisp, clear Fall day. Actually spent ~3.5 hrs checking points, etc. plus an additional couple of hours with Mark and Barb Dominie coordinating locations for the two days.
