I wanted to actually race this one so after a bit of warm-up run I lined up with everyone for the instructions in the rain.
Big problem out of the first hub control / start triangle. Naturally I took off with everyone else to the start control on a large knoll in the middle of an otherwise featureless square of forest. I then left there in the wrong direction because other people were going that way. Lost probably 8 seconds or so on what became a poor route choice (that was better than correcting back to the right route choice). Made a similar but much smaller error on the second loop but by the third and fourth loops I had figured it out and was look at the 1st control of the next loop well in advance and figuring out how I needed to leave the hub.
Frustrating because I was putting serious effort last year into figuring out my starting routing and nailing the first leg but it all left in the exciting of the first real race of the season for me and a mass start at that!

1. you can't cross any of the additional pink lines - nothing too tricky here but a couple of left right options where you had to find the gaps in the lines to figure out where you could get though.
2. you can't go into any of the maze of whited out areas. This was trickier and I generally just chose the simpler route. Wasn't super focused on the last couple of controls. I wasn't focusing on focusing though and was just treating it as a warmup for the weekend.

1. really visualize every decision point.
2. I can't remember now.... oops! Look up as far as I can see?
The decision point visualization itself went fairly well (it could be better though) but I made a few small mistakes in other areas which precluded the visualizing the decision points.
Surprisingly tricky area!
