Tundra/Desert's comments - by leg
| 1. |
Did not plan ahead Did not check features en route Took a chance Underrated difficulty Read map too late Bad map reading Time Lost: 01:40 | Bad map reading. Did not see the fact that the reentrant was off the main one (as if we hadn't LIVED in the damn reentrant for a few weeks...) |
| 2. |
Bad map reading Confused parallel features Time Lost: 03:30 | Was too low. Should have figured that out. Did a loopy-loop along the edges of the major reentrant, down and up. |

Bad map reading Bad compass work Time Lost: 02:20 | Went into a reentrant pointing N, instead of NE. Figured it out at around the edge of the map. |
| 6. |
Bad route choice Time Lost: 01:00 | When in doubt, go straight. But when in doubt, can't run squat, can't read no damn map, and it's steep like hell, then what we do? |
| 7. |
Bad compass work Bad distance judgement Time Lost: 01:30 | Hit the little trail in advance of the major road; thought it WAS the major road. Got off the trail and ended up running parallel to the road. Wished Joe B well at the end of the leg. |

Confused parallel features Bad distance judgement Time Lost: 02:00 | Checked out the knoll SE of the one. Had trouble rotating myself afterwards. |
| 10. |
Bad route choice Time Lost: 03:00 | The boundary road all the way around would have been sooooo sweet. Only took it partway, from the square fence on in. Eric flew by (into 10) as I was leaving 10. |
