Event: Newcastle Bush Series (NOY) #4
 

Slow jog to start.

NOY 4 at Hamburger Trail
Thought I'd be in for a slow day, knee and rest of body not feeling great. Ended up feeling ok most of the time. No errors though slightly off line a couple of times.
Due to recent fires green was generally not as green but boundaries still able to be seen.
1. Track for short distance, across creek, straight on compass, bit far E when thought distance was up, saw control, perhaps lucky.
2. Straight on compass, control visible once close to creek.
3. Straight on compass, across creek and into water course
4. Straight on compass, bit more concentration required as not many other features on way.
5. East and up to saddle between unmapped hills, straightish from there check couple of points on way, attack from Loop on nearest track.
6. Straight on compass.
7. Straight on compass, was to east of ridge line though, decide time to cross ridge and hit control.
8. Straight on compass to car wreck on track, straight from there.
9. Straight on compass, was about 20-30m high when got to creek. Others felt control was too low in creek?
10. Straight up for a bit and then contour around, Alvin caught me here and thought I chase for a bit, that bit ended up very short, oh for youth, fitness and knees.
11. Straight
12. Straight on compass, 20-30m too high when got to creek.
13. Straight to edge of green and round edge to control.
14. Straight, ended up hitting track 20-30m west of finish.
