Routegadget here, I'm green x 1: http://www.ptoc.org/gadget/cgi-bin/reitti.cgi?act=...

Ended up in 6th despite making quite a few small mistakes. I'd say the worst ones were :

1-2: hesitating on the route choice and not going straight through the forest to the road.

3-4: Wandering around on the spur for too long.

4-5: Going around on the slow slippery trail instead of going straight across the river.

9-10: Taking a bad initial bearing and hitting the trail much farther north than I wanted.

Definitely satisfied with the 6th place finish. the orienteering was not my best but it was a hard course and I didn't make any big mistakes which is good.

Day 1 - Green X 1 - Splits

orienteering training at kill creek park with the team. the two exercises were a memory o' and a compass exercise. I did well on the memory o' but pretty poorly on the compass one. luckily, there are rarely real orienteering situations where you rely solely on an accurate compass bearing across 400m. thanks to erin for doing a great job organizing the junior training for everyone.

Walked the model with the team. Lots of snow for march!

travellin man

meant to run but ran out of time...probably doesn't matter.
