COC Middle at Mount Foley. I decided to be conservative and keep good contact. A bit slow but I was very direct and had very little time lost wondering where the flag was. One bobble where I went to a nearby control even though I was sure it was offline. Used it as Attackpoint. Often rocky underfoot so the going was slow in places. 10/20. George beat me by more than 2 minutes.

COC sprint in Perth, Ontario. Excellent course through the centre of town with manned road crossings.
Good outing with a minor bobble at one from not reading the description soon enough. Ran a few steps past another control after crossing the main street. Also, don't know if crossing the stream the second time was optimum. Very enjoyable.

Retro course at Camp Fortune. Rerunning the 1968 COC on a b&w 1 20000 with 6 metre contours. Lots of errors and bobbles. Probably about 20 minutes of dumbness. Some good sections too but the
Hardest part was right at the end. Still can't figure out the trails there.

Carp Barrens. Following Karen. Ponds very high and thick green at the beaver dams but the rest was fine. Hot summer day.

Easterns at Pierrefonds. Quite flat. Woods quite open with some green with generally indistinct boundaries.6/15 with 4 min lost to poor bearing #3 and wrong route choice #2. Good in some other legs and OK on the rest.
