Ran-it Granite: Green X Day 2
Charlie
| 1. | down to the stream and along to the bend. A little difficulty reading the small features on the map | ||||||
| 2. | More difficulty with reading. W to the pond, but then had to climb down gingerly, around on the trail | ||||||
| 3. | Saw Nancy off to my right as I took a pretty straight route and spiked it. | ||||||
| 4. | +00:20 | Intentionally right of line and around hilltop, hitting E trail near junk car and then up to trail jct, then up reentrant. Ended up a bit low and left and then back to flag | |||||
| 5. | +05:00 | Straight line, but apparently just a bit left and didn't see anything as I came down the hill. There was a guy who had been left of me who came running across to my right, so I assumed I was too far left and thrashed around a bit before heading back to what was really a pretty obvious feature | |||||
| 6. | Fairly straight, passed by Tim and Ben Parson along the way, and Rick Worner near the control | ||||||
| 7. | Straight again, noting pattern of open area and small copse in it. Passed Nancy again near open area. Spike. | ||||||
| 8. | Left of line up small reentrant in spur and across top of larger reentrant near field corner, past junk piles and down reentrant. Spike. | ||||||
| 9. | Easy | ||||||
| 10. | +05:00 | Trail NE and then SE to field, then SW out of field, but missed control and continued on to ditch 150m SW, then back by Green Y control at pit and finally got it. | |||||
| 11. | Trail to jct, then straight. No problem | ||||||
| 12. | +12:00 | S to trail, then along trail and lost concentration. Thought perhaps I had gone too far and cut off into the crappy woods thinking it was green, but I was short of control and kept drifting, finally coming to fields N of OB house, then back by church and eventually back to area of control. Disaster. | |||||
| 13. | +01:30 | Really tired by now and not moving or thinking well. Left of line, then slogging through intricate area checking a few extra pits with Carl Childs | |||||
| 14. | +02:00 | Pretty non-functional by now. couldn't read area very well and went up and over spur instead of around beneath it, ending up too far N and floundering a bit. | |||||
| 15. | +00:30 | Drifted right | |||||
| F. | Passed Holly K in the chute, but she outpunched me as I stabbed a few times at the box. Couldn't seem to do anything right! |
