Walked / jogged the model event at Hickory Run with Jackson. AOWN - found a really large bear scat and a deer skull.... 9 year olds love that stuff...

Errors on #1 & #2 probably worth 7-8 minutes, then settled down and navigated more slowly and tentatively but pretty clean the rest of the way. Only other error was on the long leg from 9-10 I didn't notice the trail across the bridge and misread it as a form line at the top of the slope - so I opted to do my climbing on the road, running back through the start callup area, then cutting across the stream and up the hill to avoid a long leg in light green. Executed my route perfectly, but in retrospect that trail probably would have saved me a couple minutes. Middle of the pack today...

Shadowing Jackson on white. Another good outing for him, including a number of off trail legs - 2 by design, one by Jacksons choice. The latter would have been fast going around on trail, but he learned that the hard way. One major error heading down the wrong trail to #7, I let him go about 2 minutes before telling him to stop, read the map and figure out where he was. Back to #6 we went and then ok from there...
