Event in Kent (Day 2): Red

2. Doing great until just before I got there, and went up the southward-pointing spur east of the control. It was really obvious where I was, and I corrected immediately.

5. Stayed high for the first part (because I failed to see that going straight would bring me to a nice trail), then dropped down about 60% of the way there. Came to the stream, but couldn't find it on the map at first, and was breifly baffled. Then I found it, and followed the trail that passes north of the control and attacked from above.

12. Tried to stay high enough, but drifted right. Was concentrating more on moving fast than on keeping track of where I was, and 80% of the way there, I really didn't know. Had to climb up several lines, at which point I was just right of the line. Ran past a control on a charcoal platform in the big reentrant that's under the line, and from there knew exactly what I was doing and had no problem.
13. Made really good time blasting down the reentrant. Of course, it would have been a lot smarter to have read the map and seen that what I really needed to do was to keep the reentrant on my left. Got down almost to the trail, looked around, saw the cliff, and had to slog back up several lines.
