Not my day for orienteering. Should've taken it as a sign after messing up finding the start...
2 - Passed way to the N, hit the trail and corrected.
3 - Marched along, hit a little low but figured out where I was and headed up the shallow reentrant. And then looked for the streamer forever. Was pretty sure I was in the right spot and was about to move on when I finally spotted it.
4 - So terrible. Hit a large depression and thought it was the one just before the point so followed it around to the W. Turned out to not be the depression I thought it was...I finally realized the hill I was on and headed to the correct spot which was way off from where I had been wandering. Lost so much time on this one. Things started looking up after this.
9 - Got a little confused by the water.
13 - Confirmed my location before heading out the spur, should've just committed.
14 - Some hesitation here too.
Fun course. Need to work on following bearings while trying to run through woods with lots of stuff to trip on. And navigating to the feature instead of scanning for the flag once I get close.

To the start. Didn't quite read all the start instructions so had some bonus warmup.
