No attack point | Didn't hit this one straight on. Contoured around side of hill to west-facing slope. | |||||

Did not plan ahead | ||||||
| 4. |
No attack point | Best attack point for this one was a bend in the path behind the control, from which the control was visible. I did take a quick look along a line of earth features the control seemed to be on, but to no avail. | |||||
| 5. | |||||||
| 6. |
Bad map reading Bad compass work Confused parallel features | Missed one of the two paths leaving the forest road and headed up the wrong gentle spur. | |||||

| 8. | |||||||
| 9. |
Bad route choice | Got caught in some marsh, which slowed me down. | |||||
| 10. |
Bad route choice Bad distance judgement | Perhaps dodgy route choice, started out by heading at almost 90 degrees to the line. Wanted to get out of the marshy section. Also entered the section of forest containing the control from too far along the path. | |||||
| 11. | |||||||
| 12. |
Did not like map Bad compass work | Got slightly confused by the map here. Veered a little to the north and found a fence I shouldn't have. | |||||

Bad map reading | ||||||
| 14. |
Bad compass work | ||||||
| 15. |
Bad compass work Confused parallel features Could not relocate Not thinking clearly | My biggest mistake. Should have been easy. Didn't check compass direction correctly and ran up wrong re-entrant. | |||||
| 16. |
No attack point Did not like map | Found an unmarked ride. Not helpful but didn't throw me too much. | |||||
| 17. | Could perhaps have taken a straighter route. Also one section of rough-open was very slow-going. | ||||||
| 18. | |||||||
| 19. |
No attack point Bad route choice | Attack point was nearby ride apparently visible from other side of gentle valley. I failed to see it from there and only found it after finding the control! | |||||

| 22. |
Did not plan ahead Took a chance Did not like map Bad map reading Bad compass work Not thinking clearly | Should have followed compass better. Didn't take me long to find one of two paths leading to the control, but I seemed to think it was at the bottom of the hill and so ran about 200m to the north to a wrong control instead. | |||||
| 23. |
Tired Hesitated | An easy leg - follow the stream - but I hesitated a couple of times. | |||||
| 24. |
Tired Not thinking clearly Lacked confidence Hesitated | Slight hesitation as I hadn't noticed the control was to one side of the re-entrant I was running up. | |||||
