| 1. | +00:15 | Poor attackpoint; hit the depression NE of the flag rather than following the ridge into the flag. | |||||
| 2. | +02:00 | Approached the circle well, but couldn't find the flag in the circle. Repeatedly circled back to the bend in the rock wall and the knoll NW of the flag. | |||||
| 3. | Charged up the hill. Upset about 2. | ||||||
| 4. | Straight. | ||||||
| 5. | +00:20 | Over the top to the trail left of the line; struggled to interpret the boundaries of the swamps and lost 20-30s on my attack. | |||||
| 6. | Around the north end of the swamp. | ||||||
| 7. | +01:00 | Good route, but bad attackpoint; was too short. Relocated off the cliff above and NE of the flag. | |||||
| 8. | Straight, fast. | ||||||
| 9. | +00:10 | Straight. Overshot the flag by about thirty meters before seeing it. | |||||
| 10. | Attacked from the big double boulder. | ||||||
| 11. | Hard to see the flag, but hit the little hill ok. | ||||||
| 12. | +00:20 | Didn't read the contours well and overshot on the ridge after attacking from the trail junction. | |||||
| 13. | Very tired; slowed to a walk meandering through the rock field before seeing the boulder. It may have been higher than mapped. | ||||||
| 14. | Tired. | ||||||
| 15. | Really wanted water; straight. | ||||||
| 16. | +01:00 | Ascended left of the line on the water course. Footing was bad, and I slowed to a walk at times. Running right on the trail probably was faster. | |||||
| 17. | +00:20 | Confused exiting 16; some hesitation, but my line was fine. | |||||
| 18. | Trail run. | ||||||
| 19. | +10:00 | Catastrophic failure. Motivated by fatigue, I eschewed climbing five lines to hit a good attackpoint and instead tried to follow a marsh edge. Easily lost ten minutes relocating. | |||||
| 20. | Mad; plowed through the swamp. | ||||||
