| 2. | skip -- I remembered having a bad time climbing the slopes to #2, and the way from #2-#3 didn't look nice at all to me. | ||||||
| 3. | Picked up Brendan on the open trail & then a bunch of others just before the control, which I managed to see first because I side sloped up the W side of the hill. | ||||||
| 4. | Here they all passed me -- I cut off the trail & followed the first bunch, then followed Angelica who seemed to be taking an intelligent route. | ||||||
| 5. | At the top, ran across what looked like a road, but I guess was that faint yellow area. I went south from there, no control at the right distance, but then found it 50m east. | ||||||
| 6. | E, avoiding climb, the down.... | ||||||
| 7. | Followed trails most of the way to L. #7, cutting through the ropes course. | ||||||
| 8. | Wanted to go NE & pick up the trail to the right, but was blocked by thick stuff, causing some delay. | ||||||
| 9. | To right of pond, etc. | ||||||
| 10. | Straight N to open area (fighting some brambles just in front of it) then following a nice track to the control. | ||||||
| 11. | |||||||
| 12. | |||||||
| 13. | NE, finding hole through cliffs, then trail. Was a bit hesitant by the stream, thinking it was a bit early, but a peek down the trail showed the bend. So up I went -- didn't see a pronounced reentrant where I thought it would be, so I ventured right, whereas left was correct. Was this where PG passed me? | ||||||
| 14. | |||||||
| 15. | Felt my calves cramping on this trail run. Stopped a couple of times. The control code had me puzzled for a moment -- 73? Was this really on my course? | ||||||
| 16. | |||||||
| 17. | |||||||
| 18. | Was tempted to take the trail through the swamp, but was afraid it might really BE a deep swamp. I found out later it was OK. Dagnabbit. | ||||||
| 19. | |||||||
| 20. | Fought some really thick stuff... Found the boundary wall, but somehow overshot the place the boundary went EW. Hit the ditch and took a few seconds to figure it out. | ||||||
