Charlie's comments - by leg
| 1. | Time Lost: 07:00 | Thought I had a good route: trail to rough open and down reentrant below fence to big depression. Up slot to the south and up to knoll, but maybe I was on the spur, then on knoll beyond, then back to the same spot and over again, and again. Just careless in the circle, I guess. |
| 2. | SW across road and knoll and trail along edge of green to lower road, down reentrant and across stream and marsh and in from the N. | |
| 3. | Time Lost: 01:00 | On compass and a few steps on trail. Got stopped by a woman who was lost and gave her directions back to Sessions, then up hill and in. Almost stepped on nails on ladder that was near the pit. |
| 4. | Time Lost: 07:00 | Straight at first, but thought first trail was second trail and then drifted S to near houses and was pretty confused. Finally down trail to the N and around based of hill and in from the NW. Really bad form. Peter Goodwin near control. |
| 5. | Time Lost: 06:00 | Planned to take trail W and then down reentrant, but got confused and elected to just push up and over through green. Trouble following a line and hit the road N of # 4, then NW and W on road to where it bens N and across top of knoll on an angle, checking off knoll with cliff on it NNW of control. A little further down than I expected it, adding to the anxiety. |
| 6. | Back out the way I came, then cutting the corner from road to trail and uphill through green to control. | |
| 7. | Caught up to Peter Goodwin again. Straight, more or less, reading the contours pretty well all the way. | |
| 8. | Time Lost: 02:00 | Hit trail N of #8 and thought it was the road, so pretty confused for a bit until punching through and across stream to road, then left road near first stream and up spur, across to trail, leaving trail where it bends back east. Up spur, then down reentrant, drifting a bit too far left, but seeing the bag and correcting. Still with Peter off and on. |
| 9. | Just right of hemlock grove with distinct veg boundary, then on compass, favoring uphill until I saw the boulder S of control and correcting right in. | |
| 10. | N to trail, trail to stone wall, in on compass, seeing the spur from a long way off and right in. | |
| 11. | N to trail, followed trail for a bit until it got hard to follow near stone wall, then S up shallow reentrant and across flat until reentrant on other side opened up. | |
| 12. | SW to trail, then trail to just past low spot and in on compass, seeing the flag from a distance. Janet T was there as well. | |
| 13. | Somehow didn't see that the road was so close, so went E through the slash to the trail and then trail to road, past green stripey area and on compass from top of hill. | |
| 14. | Across stream near bridge, up reentrant left of spur with knoll, then drifting right into reentrant up and over. | |
| 15. |
