SL 3.4 km, 55m climb, by Dean Sturtevant...a very nice brown course in a complex area with not a lot of elevation change. 1:10000 map with 2.5m contours; glacial terrain with pine saplings reducing visibility in some areas.
Temps around 40 or so, and sunny which made it mostly comfortable for standing around later. Others in my class were spread out timewise so we hung around a bit to see later finishers.
AP lists me with error on 7, but I was just being slow and careful. My big mistake was to 9 where I wandered a bit, off the map north of where I needed to be, but relocated and figured out where I needed to go. My error was due in part to seeing a control on the big trail (when I reached it) in a low wet spot and assuming it was the stream crossing on my map just NE of 9; it's most likely off the map and on tomorrow's white course. I figure I lost almost 6 minutes there. I saw Bob B, who had punched #8 just ahead of me, wandering in the same area but he apparently took a lot more time to figure out what he'd done.
Chase start tomorrow should be interesting with Sandy 21 sec ahead and Trisha about the same time behind. Hope the course is as much fun.
