| 1. | 2:28 | 3 | +38 | 35% | 85.6 | 2:28 | 3 | +38 | 35% | I didn't have control codes with me and they weren't on the map which I manually copied either. I started-up the left side of the reentrant for #1 then wasted time crossing it to the control. I guess the feature was a cliff but it was small. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 2. | 7:28 | 3 | +1:48 | 32% | 91.7 | 9:56 | 3 | +2:26 | 32% | I probably should have gone high on this. Instead, I cut reentrants in an S-curve left to right. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 3. | 5:29 | 2 | +45 | 16% | 98.3 | 15:25 | 3 | +3:11 | 26% | I left going high and over the saddle. This dropped me down into the main valley well. I came up the spur initially, then across to the control. There was a good bit of water. I opened a jug. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 4. | 7:50 | 2 | +2:32 | 48% | 93.5 | 1:00 | 23:15 | 2 | +5:43 | 33% | I was doing okay on this even though I lost track of where I was getting to the road. Once across there, I read better. I kept thinking I needed to be more right but didn't recognize that I was going down the spur. I had thought the spur would be more prominent and that I'd know if I were going down it but it was only a formline spur; much broader than I thought it would be. I corrected and others were there punching. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| 5. | 3:58 | 3 | +2:40 | 205% | 57.6 | 2:20 | 1:24 | 27:13 | 3 | +8:23 | 45% | I thought this one would be easy. I descended the reentrant from the saddle, crossed and turned right. I saw the control but when I had copied the map, I had circled a boulder and the control was not on a boulder. I didn't have control descriptions to check the code with so I went on. I convinced myself that I hadn't crossed the spur yet. Finally at the next big reentrant I turned around. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| 6. | 3:33 | 2 | +42 | 25% | 96.6 | 30:46 | 3 | +9:05 | 42% | I went fairly straight over the ridge and across the reentrant above the stream confluence. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 7. | 4:38 | 1 | -45 | -14% | 115.0 | 35:24 | 2 | +8:20 | 31% | I thought about the field but it appeared to be too much up and down to be worth the added distance. Also, my map was folded in the plastic in a way that I couldn't see the field well. I crossed the first reentrant and used the ruined barn to set me straight. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 8. | 2:33 | 3 | +1:03 | 70% | 81.3 | 35 | 37:57 | 3 | +9:23 | 33% | I read this correctly initially and told myself to keep to the left of the reentrant. While going down, I noticed the saddle on my right. I looked at my map again and saw that the control was past and below such a saddle so I veered away to the wrong saddle. Once on the knoll, I saw the control and worked my way there using the trail. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| 9. | 13:38 | 3 | +4:45 | 53% | 86.2 | 1:00 | 51:35 | 3 | +14:08 | 38% | I thought about going to the road but remembered old courses where it wasn't very helpful. Also weighing in was a thought that I should practice navigation more. I chose to go across through the woods. The problem was that I didn't plan it out. I got up to the trail and started to go higher to the next but then turned around. I followed the trail I had first crossed to the next intersection. I lost my place and didn't pause to check it. I presumed I had been there before and could remember the map sufficiently to go on. When I saw the barn, I realized I'd gone too far. I cut right and paralleled the trail where some cyclist were descending. I zig-zagged partly on and partly off-trail to just near #4 again. From there it was easy to go over the ridge and follow the reentrant down. It seemed a long way. I picked-up the pace at the end to out-run another person. Time lost is for poor execution; If I accounted for the bad route it would have been more. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| 10. | 6:09 | 3 | +1:42 | 38% | 89.3 | 30 | 57:44 | 3 | +15:50 | 38% | I ran up the reentrant when I should have cut more steeply to the right and out of it. I ran on the wrong side of the ridge, got caught-up in some green and had to cross back. I used the open rough which was mapped with black vertical lines, to keep me straight. I first saw and ran to the big depression and was surprised to see the control ahead on such a small, albeit deep enough pit. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| 11. | 4:20 | 2 | +42 | 19% | 100.3 | 1:02:04 | 3 | +16:32 | 36% | It seems like I've done this leg many times. I went through the rough open to the road, then cut in after the small knoll. As I approached, I could see Francis Hogel leaving. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 12. | 5:49 | 2 | +32 | 10% | 127.8 | 10 | 1:07:53 | 2 | +17:04 | 34% | I ate a Gu at #11. I was thirsty but there were only a few drips of water in the single jug. I took some and left some. Leaving, I swung wide to the left. I crossed the road and angled over toward the trail. I crossed and unmapped boulder before hitting the trail and catching Francis. The far side of the stream looked thick so I stayed on the side I was on and cut right on the trail. I watched the left bank for contour changes and saw what I was looking for near where a couple was stopped staring. I ran right across w/o stopping and went up. I cut right a bit before seeing it and another person on my left. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| 13. | 11:01 | 2 | +1:45 | 19% | 95.3 | 45 | 1:18:54 | 2 | +18:49 | 31% | I followed the animal trail to the creek and got on the maintained trail. I left it at the appropriate bend and descended the spur. I had to correct for drift leaving the trail. Once at the bottom, I crossed the stream and climbed. I thought I was perhaps climbing too high but when I got into the area, I was too low. Fortunately for me I recognized it. Neither the control nor the pit was visible until I'd climbed high enough. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
