| 1. |
Disturbed by others +00:20 | e-punching today. the first thing I noticed was this was both ctrl 1 and 6. Managed to blow it, distracted by another runner | |||||
| 2. | running downhill thru open fields. Now that is fun | ||||||
| 3. | stayed low in the field to avoid the really tall grass to the parking lot. Took Horseshoe Trail to second junctionm, then up to Charcoal Trail. Found 9 on the way, then used prop line as handrail then down spur | ||||||
| 4. | decided to run straight at the field but the light green was thicker than the amazon and green kills on a downhill leg, so bailed to the fields on the right. Then west trail then boulder. If the light green is really light green I think going straight is the way to go. | ||||||
| 5. |
Hesitated +00:20 | Probably the trickiest one, no contour detail near the flag and the green is a bit vague. I often have trouble on this part of the map; I decided to head for the long uncrossable swamp, and look for the dark green. Was hesitent as I wasn't sure I'd recognise the swamp. Found swamp, didnt find dark green thicket but recognized broad spur feature was on. I think going straight is quite bold, wonder if anyone did. | |||||
| 6. | back to Horseshoe Trail and to edge of fields. Attacked it the same way as the first time and did not miss this time ... | ||||||
| 7. | |||||||
| 8. |
Bad route choice | This is a good leg, I think. I went straight at it to the Charcoal Trail then off the trail junction, but the rocks were murder, and slow. A better choice may be to follow the property line to the corrider without rocks straight down the hill. | |||||
| 9. | Found this one the way to 3 just ran the trail | ||||||
| 10. | +00:30 | trail running. Was a little miffed at 2 bags on the same feature within 50 meters. Don't know what the rule is but I lost 30 sec. Lot of people treasure hunting down here. Oh well, good relocation training | |||||
| 11. |
Did not like map Hesitated +00:20 | trail to trail rather than diagonally. Lot of unmapped rock off the trail junct attack point confused me. | |||||
| 12. | seen this one before too | ||||||
| 13. |
Did not like map +00:15 | drawn right by an unmapped (or covered by the ctrl number) thicket. Saw bag way to the west | |||||
| 14. |
Did not like map Not thinking clearly Lacked confidence Hesitated +00:20 | trail run. Hesitated by unmapped building on trail (they later tell me this is mapped as a man made object). I'm an idiot for hesitating at it, because there was no chance I was on the wrong trail | |||||
| F. | I think the map could use a revision, but all in all a fun course |
