Rosaryville
Cycling 1:24:00 [3]
Another round trip to Rosaryville.
Hiking 3:40:00 [1]
Just past noon to almost sunset fieldchecking. I think I'm done except for the drafting and any new things Nadim finds that needs correcting between now and mid-April. And finishing (in some areas, even starting) the eastern fringes of the park Nadim's courses don't use, but that can wait until next season.
Ran into Valerie as she tested the Blue course, and a mountain biker who asked me if I was doing some kind of navigation and who turned out to be a GAOC member now moved to our area, and my first tick of the season, which I found in and had to extract from my navel when I got home in the evening.

Easter Classic 5K/10K? Then Rosaryville.
Cycling 1:22:00 [3]
Round trip to Rosaryville.
Hiking 3:50:00 [1]
Late morning to sunset field checking. Met Nadim on arrival at the mansion as he just happened to be crossing the parking lot beside which I lock up my bike.
Startled the largest grouse-like bird I've ever seen late in the afternoon. It was sitting in the cup depression left by one of the mapped rootstocks and took off in a steep climb to treetop level when I approached to within 10 to 15 meters. It was well enough camouflaged that I probably never would have noticed it if it had kept still but I suppose the avian instinct would generally be to fly away if in doubt unless there's a nest to be defended.

Cycling 1:05:00 [3]
No pool again this morning but a better excuse - decided on waking that I'd better put in some time in OCAD before work if I wanted to be certain of heading into the woods with adequate printouts to support my field checking agenda for the weekend. Home by way of PCRM work party.

Cycling 57:00 [3]
Another failure to get moving early in the morning. Need to do better at getting to bed quickly once I give up on OCAD if I'm going to do better any day this week. Cycled to work, at least. And home.
