| 1. | +23:00 | Contoured around the hill. Did a lot of wandering around on the hillside. Bailed out to the road above *twice*. | |||||
| 2. | Went straight at it. | ||||||
| 3. | Took the road then ran below the big cliff. Went to the right of the green blob, ran to the top of the hill to the boulder. | ||||||
| 4. | Went down to the road. Cut in at the cliffs. Went around the right of the big cliff. Had to climb a little to the control. | ||||||
| 5. | Ran just left of the line following the spur. Worked my way through the detail to the control. | ||||||
| 6. | +07:00 | Ran to the left along the bottom of the big hill. Climbed up too early and spent some time running around too high searching for the control. | |||||
| 7. | Straight down to the very visible control. | ||||||
| 8. | Took the road all to Lake Georgina. Up the trail to the small building and attacked from there. | ||||||
| 9. | Left the control looking for the rock hills to the right. Left of the cliff at the trail. Worked my way through the detail until I saw the L-shaped cliff above mine. | ||||||
| 10. | +04:00 | Ran for the trail. Had conversation with Angelica about how bad we were doing. When I hit the trail I was a little confused because I crossed it at a weird angle. Didn't have a very good plan and suffered the consequences. Bailed out to the trail above and eventually found it behind the to Golden Horseshoe guys. When I saw the feature I didn't believe it was mine, because it didn't look right. | |||||
| 11. | Down to the trail to the water stop. Left the clearing to the left of the small hill. Ran along the flattish area until it ran out, then saw the big cliff and attacked. | ||||||
| 12. | On this control I was afraid. Very very afraid. I contoured around to the small cliffs. Dropped a little and hit the big cliff. Contoured some more to the next group of cliffs. Descended from there. Saw what I thought were my 2 boulders and attacked. No control. A little farther on saw 2 larger boulders. By then one of the guys I was running with spotted the control. | ||||||
| 13. | Contoured to the trail. Ran along the top. Stopped a little short of the control, but then saw it right away. | ||||||
| 14. | Ran over the hill planning to run along the bottom of the cliff to the control. Saw it on *top* of the big cliff. Re-read my control description. Damn. | ||||||
| 15. | Down to the trail to the bridge. | ||||||
| F. | Finished at last! |
