Rietvlei Zoo Farm. Battled to read the detail for the first group of controls in the buildings and pens. Lucky to see the weir crossing the top end of the dam. #7 was placed a bit north of where it should have been. Manage to use the paths quite well hopping between them across the veld.
Went right from 12 to 13 then had to boulder hop the catch Gavin. Rest was OK except the last control could not seen the paved square or the two trees, but knew it was visible from the finish so wasted about 10 s.
Run felt messy, but I beat Brian, Rory and Carl, so it must have been better than theirs. Good start to 2016!
