DVOA local event at Hibernia County Park. Red course 7.8k, 216m climb. Lots of light to medium green woods so most of the optimum route choices were to take trails as much as possible (not that I always made that choice). Pretty sloppy on several legs with fuzzy attackpoints followed by imprecise compass. No big errors, but all the small ones amounted to 10 minutes or so worth of time lost. Also lost a minute or two finding my epunch when I dropped it while fiddling with a glove. Wintery day - temp at about 25F, mostly cloudy, some breeze and 1-2" of snow on the ground. Good HTFU stuff. Thanks to the volunteers who hung controls and stood around in the cold.
