Tundra/Desert's comments - by leg
| 1. | Map should be here... Started the shared leg with Tapio. He beat me to the control. I am indeed slower than everyone on this year's Jukola team. | |

| 3. |
Bad map reading Bad compass work Time Lost: 00:10 | Saw a bag on the V-pits first, then the V-pits, then ran to my control. |
| 4. | ||
| 5. | Was shaky and misread things, but saw first the bag and then, someone punching the bag. | |
| 6. | I think it was Rick Breseman... he ran away from me, but probably did not have the same control. | |
| 7. | Navigated alone. At the control, saw bmoore and Spike. | |
| 8. | Followed Brian, then Spike came along as Brian went off to the side. It was a pleasure Spik-ing the control. | |
| 9. | On this leg, Brian and Spike went much faster than I could. I had trouble even keeping up with Eileen Breseman. But, as I followed the red line to the knoll, reading out all the detailseven the green ×'sBrian suddenly reappeared. | |
| 10. | No chance to keep up... I lost sight of bmoore shortly before the monster climb. I took the climb very easy, and went to the right of the line, through the rocks. | |
| 11. | At #10 I saw Peter Golde... now, finally, someone I could pass. Then I saw the fence junction (passed 1.5 contours below it), then the Red control on a U-pit. From it, followed theDabbler who was moving at my pace but had a different control. At out #11, there was some water but no cups. I don't want to pass mono on to anyone. | |
| 12. |
Bad map reading Time Lost: 00:55 | Coming up the reentrant to #12, I timed bmoore leaving it, going to #13. Then, I misread the map and hit the U's just north. |
| 13. | I timed myself passing through the reentrant at approximately 4.5 minutes behind Brian, already. | |
| 14. | There was water at this one, and cups. | |
| 15. | As I got there, lots of gunfire... I would yell after each shot. For a while, the shooting would stop, then resume. | |
| 16. | Walked this one. | |
| 17. |
Bad compass work Time Lost: 00:35 | Ran down, but in a wrong direction (NE).Once I got to the fringe of the forest, the situation was easy to figure out. |
| 18. | No problems. | |
| 19. | Got to the correct knoll and saw the bag from it further along. The shooting hit the apogee. | |
| 20. | So I got the hell out of there, fast. Well... as fast as I could. | |
| 21. | Trying hard to not walk. Sharon Crawford was looking for something around our #21, and believe me, she wasn't moving any slower than I was. | |
| 22. | ||
| 23. | Vadim stopped way short of the control. I told him to move along... | |
| 24. | ... and he promptly went off in direction on this one, but corrected. | |
| 25. | As we were going up the hill, Greg B pulled up. I let Greg and Vadim go. | |
| 26. |
