US Masters Champs Day 1 at Bigelow Hollow SP near Union, CT. Brown X, 4.1k, 90m. Mostly open woods with plenty of rock underfoot and lots of rock and mountain laurel detail (typical New England terrain).
Had an OK run. Overshot 5 by misreading the detail in the circle (didn't see there was a hill there, thought it was one big spur). Bonehead error to 7 misreading trails and running ~150m toward 8 then having to double back. Probably could've been quicker to 4 had I not aimed off as far to the right. Small corrections going in to both 1 and 2.
Fun course by Jon Campbell. Perfect weather - sunny, dry, in the 50s.
