Hesitated Time Lost: 00:08 | Stopped to look at control on other course, which caused me to then run through some green. |
| 2. |
Bad route choice Hesitated Time Lost: 00:15 | Hesitated before leaving 1. Went on golf course, then road, then went through green--slow. |
| 3. | Trail was really faint, so I had trouble seeing it from the road. Not really a mistake, though, since it was unavoidable. | |
| 4. |
Bad compass work Time Lost: 00:05 | Went too far left. Left of dry ditch. |
| 5. |
Bad compass work Time Lost: 00:20 | Careless with compass, so I zig-zagged through the green and ended up going past the control to the right. |
| 6. |
Bad compass work Time Lost: 00:10 | Went too far to the right to avoid green. Was close to fence. |
| 7. |
Did not plan ahead Time Lost: 00:10 | Hadn't decided which way to go, so hesitated coming out of 6. Ended up going right. |
| 8. |
Did not plan ahead Bad compass work Time Lost: 00:45 | Somehow, I got pushed left by the green, and had to cross two reentrants (above fork), going through lots of green at the same time. |
| 9. |
Did not plan ahead Bad compass work Hesitated Time Lost: 00:25 | Hadn't read ahead, so I was hesitant, then I ended up too far left and got stuck in the green by the road. |

Lacked concentration Time Lost: 00:10 | Used little trail, but had my head in my map, so I didn't pay attention to where I should leave the trail. Hesitated. |
| 12. |
Read map too late Lacked confidence Time Lost: 00:10 | Left road and went up reentrant on line to the control, but hesitated because I wasn't confident that it was the right reentrant. |
| 13. | Time Lost: 00:07 | Hesitated coming out of 12, then went a bit too far left and encountered thicker green. |

Bad route choice Time Lost: 00:10 | Went to trail, but trail was like a twisty roller coaster. Should've read map more carefully and gone straight. |

Bad compass work Disturbed by others Time Lost: 00:55 | Sloppy with compass because I hurried because Bill was just behind me. Ended up far to right--passed really close to 18. Carefully combed hillside to left. |
| 18. |
Bad compass work Time Lost: 00:05 | Paralleled trail rather than cutting to it, then had to veer sharply right to control |
