US Long Champs on Bat Cave map in Carter Caves SP. Green M - 6.8 SL, 310m of climb advertised. Steep, mostly spur and reentrant, with rock features and pricklier green than on the model map. Course was good with 5 long, route choice legs but had a bit too much climb.
Not a good run. Was fine through 4. Missed 5 to the right and used the big building beyond it to relocate. Caught up to Tom Nolan on the way to 6 and then we proceeded to reinforce each other as we made a huge error on 6. Ended up in a paralllel reentrant system about 400m west of the one we thought we were in. I think I figured things out first but then bobbled about in green stuff on the big spur between where we were and where we should have been. Lost about 15 minutes on this one. Lost another couple of minutes on 7 by poorly executing my original route choice and then changing my route partway to what I should have initially seen as the better choice. About 20 minutes back of Tony M, in about 7th place in M60.
And, it was even colder today than yesterday - low 30's at best. Couldn't feel my hands until about 20 minutes into the run.
