MNOC Lake Elmo winter score O set by Todd P and vetted by Erin. A very nice design of course with no obvious loops or routes so everyone seemed to have a different approach. A mass of 5 pt controls close to the start area was good for the beginners and also as a warm up for the advanced folks (I did them first ). I looped then to the NW and then N (avoiding the 3 in extreme NW - off trail work was slow going with 9" deep softish snow ) . Then went to NE part of the course before finishing up with 6 min 30 seconds to spare . 4th place
