1. | Briefly considered running back through the start (which probably would have been faster). Instead I took the stone wall south to the trail and ran it to where it was tangent to the wall. Ran a bearing and was lucky to find the control. | ||||||
2. | Through thigh deep water. | ||||||
3. | Ran NNW, finding a faint trail whcih I took to the bigger trail to stone wall. Got to the right elevation, but too far W which took me a few minutes to figure out. Stumbled on the control while attempting to relocate to the east. | ||||||
4. | Overshot to west, wandered for too long. In hindsight, the topography should have made this easier. | ||||||
5. | Found the Red reentrant first (N of my control) | ||||||
6. | Straight | ||||||
7. | Straight | ||||||
8. | Straight | ||||||
9. | Very slightly left of line to stone wall, taking a bearing from the corner. | ||||||
10. | SSE to trail, then run to just before trail intersection. | ||||||
11. | Went up just after crossing marsh, coming to control from above | ||||||
12. | Took the trail to the left. Might not have been faster, but it was easier on my brain. | ||||||
13. | "swam" south to the control. | ||||||
F. | I was very surprised, given my difficulties with #3 and #4, to find that I was 2nd in M50. |
