Pretty sizable error on #3 - confused trails and was too high and ran too far, and a big one on #22 and another minute on #23. On #17 with a small crowd but they were drifting R, I started to correct to the L but then spied a flag on a boulder where everyone else was headed and went into lemming mode and followed the crowd to the wrong control, but as soon as I saw the number I knew my initial hunch was right and hightailed it back to where I had planned to go in the first place and put some distance into the crowd while they tried to discern their error. The rest went pretty well and I ran well in the woods. About 15 minutes back of Swampfox and the other usual suspects.
