US championships on Cat's Meow map.
The plan was to go as slow as it took to stay in contact with the map. This worked reasonably well as I had no major blunders. The second leg looked like make or break. As soon as I left the trail I lost contact. I just couldn't read the map. But kept on a bearing until I hit the big ridge and was able to relocate once on top. Big sigh of relief when I saw the control. OK after that as the hills and kettles were more distinct.
