PBricker's comments - by leg
| 1. | Lazy route: took the road around and attacked from due south of the control. Straight, using camp trails, a bit faster? | |
| 2. | Time Lost: 04:00 | Angled to the road and attacked from just past the cliff. Didn't execute well and found myself at the stream left of and past the control. Then, stupidly, I thought I was looking for a boulder so I went by the control checking out the boulders, relocated on the other side, and came back and found it. |
| 3. | Straight. Easy, since the knoll is the highest point in the area. | |
| 4. | Time Lost: 00:30 | A bit circuitous getting to the trail, taking the bike path when it was going north, and going around vegetation. Mistake was thinking I crossed the stream south of the fork, when I was north. So I hit the trail north of where I thought, started climbing the hillside only to see it drop back down to a stream. Figured it out pretty quick. Attacked from the small cliff in the reentrant before the stone wall, and spiked it from there. |
| 5. | Time Lost: 01:30 | A bit left of line, then followed the stone wall past the trail to the little pond, and straight from there. But, in spite of a good attack point (boulder) 70 m. from control, I veered left and first checked out the boulders 50 m north of control. |
| 6. | Time Lost: 00:30 | Includes 30 seconds drinking water. Plan was to go right of the marsh and use the high point along the stone wall as attack point. But I hit the middle of the marsh and at first, I thought I could cross. Went in a bit, thought better of it, back out, and executed plan properly. |
| 7. | Time Lost: 00:30 | Second time not reading clue cost me time. I navigated fine to the the big boulders, but didn't know to look between them. Wasted 30 seconds checking map before looking in the right place. |
| 8. | Easy, but very slow going on south side of the pond. | |
| 9. | Didn't trust the broken beaver dam, so went around to the right, coming in between the knolls, skirting the right side of the marsh, and right to it. | |
| 10. | Pretty straight, staying high after the stone wall. Spiked it. | |
| 11. | Pretty straight, hitting the big cliff in the reentrant, climbed up, and read the little ponds and the boulders right to it. | |
| 12. | Road back again. Brainless and easy. |
