O event at Bot Tschavir a bit outside of Chur.
Not the nicest area and not the greatest map either, but nice to have an event to make me push a bit.
Okay to 1+2, then didn't have a great line into 3 and missed it by a little, but area was far greener than on the map+"boulder" was about 30cm high..
Fine to 4+5, then a big climb up to 6 (125m on a 250m leg). Took a direct route and hit the green just before the control, but map made absolutely no sense and some very dark green extended way further then shown, so messed around there trying to work out what the hell was happening and eventually finding it..
Okay 7-9, then missed 10 by a bit with the low visibility.
Fine from 11-15, then hit where 16 should've been pretty well, but no control.. searched around for a few minutes with some others before just carrying on..
Last 3 controls were fine (very easy nav).
Not the most enjoyable area with lots of nettles+other green, so pretty.much just running on paths as much as possible even if it was a lot further. Also not much fun when the map doesn't really make sense.. But oh well.. at least it made me run a bit.
