1.
2.	+00:20	Thought I was coming into the control from the right, turned out to be from the left, figured it out pretty soon.
3.	+00:40	Wanted to circle around the green marshy stuff, ended up too far west, was confused for a while.
4.	+00:20	Though the control would be higher up the hill
5.	+01:00	Bad compass work, ended up way north-north east, took a while to figure out what I had done.

10.	+01:30	At first, marsh runnign was harder than I thought, so I jumped out on the west side an promptly proceded to losing the marsh - took some time to get to it. Saw Joe Brautigam and one of the West Point guys going in the marsh, but Joe looked confused within the vicinity of the control, so I figured he was wrong and I was right. Turned out to be the other way and I figured out where I was at the rock face 100m east of the control.

13.	+01:00	Was going in a perfect direction but hesitated just before the control (thought that the control will be on the top of the hill, not over it) and went on an exploring mission for about 100m north. Relocated by the clearing with a rock face on the edge of it.

16.	+00:10	Went too far right from the trail junction just before the control - just did not spot the flag.
