1. | All alone going right on the trail after the initial marsh crossing. Slipped going down the final trail on wet rocks covered by wet leaves. Slow route but nice. | ||||||
2. | +07:00 | Good route until the final approach when I saw a stream of people coming down the slope. Thought they must be leaving the control - WRONG! Went up and wandered back and forth before I finally looked down and saw it where I had initially been. | |||||
3. | R on trail, along E-W trail to junction and then through woods to wall. Slowish compared to along indistinct trail probably but didn't see it. | ||||||
4. | |||||||
5. | +01:00 | Through woods to pipeline, along to bend and in. Better to have gone back to trail along road. | |||||
6. | +00:30 | Trail to right of line. Briefly cut down trail too early but caught it quickly when things didn't look right. | |||||
7. | |||||||
8. | Trails to road to curve and in, following Jeff Shapiro. Saw a lot of him. | ||||||
9. | Back out to road, cut through maintenance parking to trail. | ||||||
10. | L on trails and along contour alomost getting run down by Alex! Punched just after Ken | ||||||
11. | Followed Ken a bit through green but he was heading away from bag so cut R through green to trail, crossed through more green and then down slope trying to hit next trail but hit stream - and directly across from knoll! | ||||||
12. | Up trail, down trail to R, through marsh, up and in. | ||||||
13. | Trails and contour over right into bag. | ||||||
14. | Ran by Jeff way low still looking for 13 and in generous mood;-} Down to line of cliffs but not obvious which was N one then saw it. | ||||||
15. | Straight to N-S trail, around to second bend and in. | ||||||
16. | Trails around to just before saddle, around hill to bag. | ||||||
17. | Trails to R to last junction, by water tank and then saw bag on R. Thought it would be further L. | ||||||
18. | +00:30 | Couldn't make out map but climbed up slope until even with rocky ground on left side of slope and in to cliff just off slope - nothing but saw bag way down rock field. | |||||
F. | As no one near, slowly worked way down muddy slope to finish. |
