| 2. | Time Lost: 00:20 | Up the ridge via power line trail, then along ridge. IMO the control was in an unmapped reentrant on the SE side of the knoll. |

| 4. | Across marshy area to trail, misread a contour near trail but spiked control by luck. | |

| 6. | Time Lost: 01:30 | Once I got past the tip of the pond, went to number 7. Oops. At least 7 was sorta on the way to 6. |
| 7. | Easy to find a good route to 7 as I had already been there. | |

| 11. | Time Lost: 05:00 | Around dark green to left, then by compass. Tried to use cliff as an attack point, but missed (I think to the right) and reached the trail. Wandered the trail a while before I knew where I was on it and then was able to head for the control. |
| 12. | Time Lost: 06:00 | Clint and Phil say this one was easy to miss, and I proved it. Followed trail to bend, attacked and missed, found rocks, attacked and missed, wandered a bit. Back to the trail, carefully identified boulder near trail bend just 30m from mapped pit, careful compass & pace count led to a spot with no control in sight. To double check my location I tried compass and pace count E toward boulder and walked right into the pit about 15m from where the map indicated. Opinion: If the feature is almost invisible, it's OK to put the control where it's visible from all directions. |
