Day 2, this time on the east side, where it is steeper, and fewer trails. Today I made two mistakes, plus dropping my map inconveniently. On number 3, I made a parallel error, but when I couldn't find the control, I at least knew to go over the next ridge. I had some trouble reading the map going from 4 to 5, so I went back to 4 and started over. I have mentally resolved my map reading problem, so this should help in the future. Then I dropped the map going over a bunch of trash from 7 to 8, had to then make two more trips over the trash.
The last control to the finish was the same as yesterday, straight uphill, and I managed to improve my time by 11 seconds.
