Four hour Adventure Trek by Rootstock Racing, in Wharton State Forest near/SE of Batsto map in NJ. Hot, with temps in the mid 80s and humidity from the rain that fell last night, but where I went was mostly wooded.
I gave this a 5 star difficulty because we used topo maps...so trails weren't always reliable...plus auxiliary bike trail maps, things were pretty flat and vague, and the blueberry impeded visibility.
I wasn't up to the task today, and probably got very close to 3 of the 4 I missed, but I did find three of the points. Sadly, I was 12 minutes overtime, so I lost those points by 4:04. I just could not push the running when my HR got over 150.
Camelbak shoulder straps had sweat-salt on them when I finished...that doesn't usually happen.
Congrats to the DVOA sweep (in four hour solo) of Sam Kolins, Glen, and Bob Fink! Lena K was close behind having found four controls and finished within the 4-hour time limit. :-)
EDIT: Okay, I took the wrong trail to #1 the first time, didn't find it at all the second time but wasted a lot of time anyway, and I misjudged trails going to #3 and wasn't even close. To #15 and #11 I just didn't go far enough...gave up too early.

Saw some of the longer race participants on the way back in... arthurd, Joe, and Jeremy C. (in that order).
Stina and Joe had already found M3 when I saw them, Jeremy and his pack hadn't reached it yet.
