4.							Veered right and too far down the spur as Viktoria and an Army guy went even further right. By the time I got to the flag a whole pack had gathered - Jim Henderson, Rich Nietupski, Pepa, Viktoria, the Army guy, George Hebner, and Sue Dewitt.

10.							Stayed high on the hill and contoured (and climbed a little). Just behind Viktoria, Pepa and Army guy finishing the O-course. Didn't look behind, but I think between the hill climb to #8 and contouring to #9 I lost the rest of the lead pack.

14.							Saw Army guy at the map, but didn't see him again until the top of the hill. Passed Pepa and Viktoria on the climb.

16.							Intended to go around, but ended up crossing the appropriately named "Suck Swamp". Swamp water underneath snow is very cold for anyone who was wondering. Saw Army guy leaving the control as I approached.

20.							This leg would have been very fast if there was snow on the hill! Fortunately there wasn't. Surprised to learn I was the first to show up to get a rucksack.
