| 1. | This was the same crappy map that remember running on several years ago. You know what, it was still just as crappy.Got close to the circle and couldn't tell anything. | ||||||
| 2. | Ran a careful straight line ignoring everything else. | ||||||
| 3. | Followed the fence to the reentrant by the green. Of course. apparently I ran down the unmpapped reentrant by the unmapped green. Floundered. Ran out the trail and took a bearing from the trail bend. Hit the fence (Damn map). This time ignored the bearing and just triangulared distance from fence and trail and hit control. | ||||||
| 4. | Trails. Started down wrong trail. Came back. Took trail to trail bend due north of control. Still ended up a little left. | ||||||
| 5. | Straight lined it. Was right on course crossing the trail north of control. I was having troubles running across the fields that aren't on the map. This was the same #*$*#* area that was bad last time. Floundered around and eventually saw a control. | ||||||
| 6. | This should have been a gimme. I got to far right. After wandering around I hit the "indistinct" jeep trail. Despite its size I figured what it was and ran the trail bend. Oh, there is no trail bend in on the map so I figured I had run off the end. Guess again. Gave up on the trail and wandered around some more. Saw people at a control and ran over to it. It was mine. | ||||||
| 7. | Remember this area from before. Ran down big reentrant to control. | ||||||
| 8. | straight | ||||||
| 9. | straight | ||||||
| 10. | straight, then trail | ||||||
| 11. | ran into unmapped fence pile at full speed. I got all tangled up in it. Luckily it wasn't barbed wire. Control was rock but couldn't even see rock on the map at night. | ||||||
