| 1. | Up to the second trail junction, and over the hill from the first bend in theSW-NE trail. A bit of hesitation around the ditches near the control. | ||||||
| 2. | Overshot the control and hit the final bit of clear before the forest started again. Wnt back throught the green just NW of control to find it. | ||||||
| 3. | Out to the trail SW of control. | ||||||
| 4. | Along the trail. Could see control flag from trail. | ||||||
| 5. | |||||||
| 6. | Couldn't make sense of the map around the control, but navigated to the center of the circle and found the control. Not very easy terrain. | ||||||
| 7. |
Did not like map | ||||||
| 8. | |||||||
| 9. | Didn't like the look of the green on the map on the direct route to the control, so took the trail almost back to 3. | ||||||
| 10. | |||||||
| 11. | |||||||
| 12. | |||||||
| 13. | |||||||
| 14. | |||||||
| 15. | Went up to the trail, and round to about where it crosses the connecting line. Was looking out for the streamers on the fence but this one didn't have any. | ||||||
| 16. | Down the creek. | ||||||
| 17. | Chose the high route. Almost hit the big trail to the East of control. | ||||||
| 18. | The green just after the creek was pretty runnable. | ||||||
| 19. | |||||||
| 20. | SW to the trail, then along the power line. | ||||||
| 21. | Back out to the powerline, but it wasn't very fast due to lots of deadfall. | ||||||
| 22. | Used the trail to the west of the straight line route. | ||||||
| 23. |
Tired | Down the trail to the bottom, and up the re-entrant on the west edge of the map. Pretty slow due to green briars (and tiredness). | |||||
| 24. | Thought I was too high, so dropped down just before I found the gully and saw the control above me. | ||||||
| 25. | Used the small trail, and then followed the creek. | ||||||
| 26. |
Tired | Slow up the last hill. | |||||
| 27. | |||||||
