Bad compass work Could not relocate Time Lost: 08:00 | came out of #3 and ran fast .Must have crossed a trail and not noticed it. Compass wouldn't settle down. Arrive at a trail junction and couldn't make sense of it. After a minute or two decided to back track and then got back to my attackpoint for #3 on the trail and got going again |
