2. | Decided to cut across stream instead of going around on the path. It didn't look bad when I started but the south side was very thorny which slowed me down quite a bit. | ||||||
3. | |||||||
4. | |||||||
5. | Slowed way down once I was in the trees. Came in slightly too far west so I didn't see the control immediately. | ||||||
6. | Took a bearing from the bench along the trail, saw control almost right away and walked straight to it. Punched twice because the epunch made a noise I hadn't heard before (turns out it was just waking up) | ||||||
7. | Control visible from the trail, walked straight there. | ||||||
8. | Tied shoe. Missed small trail to the road. Came in toward 8 a little too soon. | ||||||
9. | Thought I was heading straight toward the hill it was on, turns out I was on the larger hill by the road. | ||||||
10. | Tied shoe (again!). Cut across to path then down when I was in approximately the right area. Had trouble with the last 5 feet or so - pretty slippery and steep. | ||||||
11. | Cut off the path toward an interpretive sign on the loop that 11 was on then followed the path. | ||||||
F. | Cut across parking lot toward the building. Came in on the wrong side of the visitor center and had to go around. |
