O-training with Colm and Conor on Fair Mountain. Laurence planned us a multi technique course. Started with control pick, then long pure compass legs, then contour only, corridor and finished with a few long legs. Was going good until the contour where the map doesn't reflect the ground at all. Did the first two in the corridor but then it went through the horrible green forest so we skipped to 19. Didn't bother going to 24, but it was a good routechoice leg for an actual race. Ground was so frozen, stepped into plenty of ice covered puddles. Also got a perfect view of Colm slipping off an icy crag and nearly killing himself...scary stuff.
