1. | Already knew where this control was. | ||||||
2. | Careful trying to ease into the race. | ||||||
3. | Trying to hit the hill on the way and avoid the thickest green. | ||||||
4. | Very steep spooky hillsides on this one. | ||||||
5. | Stayed on top. Used contour features like reentrants to get close. | ||||||
6. | They taped off the wilderness boundary which was a good idea, but trivialized the control. I didn't use the tape until the very end. | ||||||
7. | Most used the reentrant right next to this control to find it. | ||||||
8. | Big hill on the way, then kept track of knolls as I got closer. | ||||||
9. | Again keeping track of hills and reentrants to get close. | ||||||
10. | Down to the trail. Contoured around before running on the trail too much. Wasn't very fast running due to the rocks. The control was higher than I expected, but I didn't keep close track of the cliffs. | ||||||
11. | Ran the yellow to the pond. Attacked from there. | ||||||
12. | +02:00 | Should have been easy. Confused by the double rocks. Thought I had it figured out, but as I got close hit a cliff which was actually right there on the map close to the control. Was bailing out back to the top of the hill, but realized that I must be correct. Turned around and went farther to the control. | |||||
13. | Straight | ||||||
14. | Straight using the reentrant near the control. | ||||||
15. | Avoided the green by going through the yellow. Carefully went down the slope to the knoll on the spur. Visibility bad here. Attacked from the spur. | ||||||
16. | Straight out to the trail. Was thinking that this was a weird go control (which it wasn't). | ||||||
17. |
Bad map reading | Technically, I did not punch here despite running right by the control. For the purposes of my records, I'm counting this as a valid run. | |||||
F. | Past the real go control to unglory. |
