Note
Saw these very large erratics (at least 5m tall) somewhere on one of my routes. ;-)
12 PM
Orienteering (Green) 2:06:24 *** 6.27 km (20:09 / km) +202m 17:22 / km
ahr:117 max:147 spiked:6/9c shoes: Inov8 ORoc280-B 2013-10
HVO/WCOC Winter Series #1 -- Green course at Harriman (just north of Rt 6), while Glen ran the Red. Parking at the semicircular road off Rt.6 NW of the Long Mountain Circle - aka Turkey Hill Pond Trail Head. Beautiful day for a Harriman course, upper 50s to 60 and bright sunny skies.
4.8 km, 185m climb (but mostly gradual/spread out)
Great to be back in this terrain though the blueberry bushes are getting higher, and "indistinct" trails I crossed are pretty much invisible (except for the one between 3 and 4). Slow going on the downhills and rocky areas because I was favoring my ankles (wore Active Ankle on left; taped the right), and I walked rather than jogged. Messed up a bit on #3 (hit a rocky/rocky ground near edge of circle short of the control and relocated) and a lot more on #8 (bad route; should have crossed the stream and hit the trail then contoured in). A bit confusing looking for #7 because there seemed to be more cliffs than mapped, but I found it. Flag at #5 was visible from a distance on my approach. About 13-14 minutes of error.
A nice day in the woods.
