Another fun day at Greenbush. Rain added an element of comfy temperature, but the overcast made the woods darker, coupled with a bit more veg on this side of the road and solidly b/r/g/b flag height, allowed for no casual spotting. Minor bobble at #1, where there was a solid trail bend attack but if you drifted down you were in the wrong hole, but if you went forward you were in the wrong part of the right hole, so lost 30 s or being slow. First quality error was 3 - didn't see it and didn't realize the one spur would continue farther between contours, so mucked around a bit, frustrating.

Then pretty good until their Bermuda Triangle - the trail seemed too far out of the way with crappy attacks for 18, so I tried to go straight. I was good for first third, then I think I missed my mark slightly in the next third, so I was offset by a hill, and then it was game over as all of the hills were surrounded by bowls. Hard to relocate, and didn't want to go all of the way out, finally ended up close enough to a clearing to use that and then still miss and end up at 20, then deliberately to 18. But I thought the weather would hurt other results, so tried to keep it moving, good for third anyway woo woo although I still slightly mussed 19, even walking on a straight bearing. One day I'll figure this out!

Brother declined to go out on Orange, preferring a nicer day. A bit bummed but then I could get home an hour or two earlier.

Highly recommended if you have a chance to go to Greenbush!

Event: Greenbush 2-Day
 

Super fun champs level terrain and courses. Loved it! Thankfully had good idea to follow ridges. Almost screwed up 8 which was waaaaay out in the glacial madness. Then was super sloppy to a later time one, off trail but next to trails too much. Otherwise decent besides speed. Looking forward to tomorrow!

C • Good run! 1

Two walks to the start

Took nephew and brother out on orange, good times!! Saw Rob and Eric.

Nephew ran so hard from the go to the finish that he got three people errors. Hahahahahahahhaahhaahahahaa

Five flags way out there in the good stuff. Pretty clean largely on ridges again, other than a quickly corrected wrong side of depression approach to the last, and maybe not the cleanest back to the exit ridge. Good stuff!

Walked up to the sixty foot Parnell tower.
