Charlie's comments - by leg
| 1. | Straight to it, and picked up several earlier runners who were coming from different directions. | |
| 2. | ||
| 3. | Picked up a couple of places on folks who went around and climbed up the reentrant from the south by taking a straight line. | |
| 4. | A little bogged down in the green. | |
| 5. | ||
| 6. |
Confused parallel features Time Lost: 04:30 | Went around the huge rocks mapped as bare rock to the E and got pretty confused |
| 7. |
Bad route choice Time Lost: 01:30 | Instead of straight down the reentrant, went back around the big rock and got stuck in some steep, rocky fight. When I punched out I was a good 100m behind the folks who had punched behind me at 6. Ran just past and saw the road, and cut back to see the flag. |
| 8. | Moving slower now, but had a good line. Alex Kerr and Linda Moore were lower, checking near the boulder, and I passed them here. | |
| 9. | Walking briskly up the reentrant, and could see the reentrant with the trees in it from the top. | |
| 10. |
Bad map reading Time Lost: 00:30 | Stopped too soon once I passed the bare rock on top, and had to puzzle it out for a bit. Alex got ahead of me again here. |
| 11. | On compass, and could see it. Easy. Got ahead of Alex for good here. | |
