Race Evaluation

MVOC Woodland Trails: Red

1.		pretty clean, trail to open field & across. noted that field mowing & trail across it was different from map.
2.		stayed to the white forest instead of crossing the low-visibility "cedar scrub".
3.	Bad map reading Bad compass work Confused parallel features Time Lost: 03:00	crossed the wrong creek
4.	Bad map reading Confused parallel features Time Lost: 06:00	crossed the wrong creek... again. relocated off wrong (parallel) fence.
5.	Hesitated Time Lost: 00:10	fairly clean, but went wide to the west to avoid crossing thick fence line. rough open was slower than anticipated.
6.		clean, open forest
7.		very clean, very fast
8.		climbed spur early. climbed too much? maybe, but running was easier than sidehill or along the creek.
9.		used indistinct trail rather than field, so as to avoid going thru green.
10.	Did not read control description Time Lost: 00:03	looking for control on the hill, didn't see rootstock until I looked closely at the map.
11.		long leg, started on trail, should have stayed with it, but decided to cross a rough open field which turned rougher than expected.
12.	Hesitated Time Lost: 00:06	a little cautious, using hunter's stands and paths.
13.		long trail run, navigated well thru fairly complex trail system.
14.		back to trail, road
15.		pretty straight to road, once I saw that what was mapped as light green was really very open. a surprise for this map, where it sometimes works the other way.
16.		marked finish.
