spiked:14/19c shoes: Inov-8 Oroc 280 #1 (blue)

Sprint-2 at Historic Beaver Brook, on the forested northern section.

This was, to be brief, a couple of not-so-interesting sprints through a poison ivy patch on a somewhat illegible 1:4000 map, with some hidden controls. Doing just the first sprint would have sufficed; at least the open areas were ivy-free. As I was about to start the second one, Kristin was coming back, having looked at the poison ivy on the way to the first control and just quit. Studying the maps at home, my guess is that the maps were color photocopies of inkjet prints, and that in the case of Sprint-2, the inkjet print was made on damp paper so that the ink bled really badly. The buildings all look like they're covered with fur.

Eight consecutive weekends, at least.
