Actual Distance: 12.7 km
First time orienteering at Rosaryville since 2012. It took me a little while to remember that not all the streams are marked on the map as streams. This caused me to lose some time while looking for 131.
I got lost while looking for 107. I turned on to one trail, thinking it was another trail. After a minute I realized my mistake, because the trail was twisting and turning much more than it should have been. I probably should have turned around and retraced my steps. Instead I tried cutting cross country to get back to the other trail but I did something wrong and wound up even further off course than I was before. I finally figured out where I was when I saw some private homes that I had passed before when heading from 120 to 119. After that I didn't have any trouble finding my way.
