Race Evaluation

Flying Pig: Blue Sprint

1.
2.
3.
4.
5.	Bad compass work +00:10	Too low.
6.
7.	Bad map reading +00:35	Misinterpreted trails and went to a rootstock NE of the tent platforms. Thought the platforms were unmapped (fat chance).
8.	Bad route choice +00:15	Went down the gully out of the bag. Bond's suggested route down the logging trail was better.
9.	Bad distance judgement +00:25	Missed high, bounced off the boundary.
10.		Caught a stick right in the corner of the left eye. A second very close call, the first one was at Fox in 1999 (but that one had much more blood).
11.
12.
13.	Bad compass work +00:20	Approached #12 from the W, thought from the S; left #12 towards the S instead of towards the E.
14.
15.
16.	+00:25	Went straight but chickened once I saw the second reentrant to cross, so went out back to the E-W road and took it. Never saw the logging trail route around that first ridge.
17.	Bad route choice +01:10	On the dinner wall, there was a beautiful Bond move I totally missed. Down the indistinct trail on the steep spur S of the line. I instead was trapped in the canyon for a while. Approach through #18 and the depression - could have shaved 10-15 seconds if approached from the main clearing (from the NE).
18.
F.		Worked it but still lost. Darn running shoes.
