Unused to map | Map is a strange scale : 1:12500. And the contours are difficult to see. |

| 5. | Right knee hurting, not helped by direction of slope (to left) - I hope this isn't old problems returning. | |

No attack point Time Lost: 02:00 | The flatter terrain mid leg was easier to run on and my knee was hurting less - seemed less painful for rest of run. Passed below control, tried to relocate off the inlets in the lake, and overshot again in the other direction. Met Jonathan Burnham as I was leaving control. |

Did not like map | Couldn't see contours on map. All I could see was rock features, which were confusing on the ground. Did manage to loose Jonathan though, |

| 20. | Lots of us looking for control including Nancy Niemann and Tom Carr. As soon as one of us found it, all of us did (bingo control). | |

| 22. | Up the stream - stopped to check a control on a lower stream junction - way too low - before continuing to correct control | |
