EMPO meet at Thacher (Paint Mine)
Turned out to be great weather for a Spring meet. Bruce set a pretty gnarly green course -- not long, but lots of good use of the cliff lines in this part of the park. Up and down, up and down, down and up, sliiiiide down, etc. Good route choices on most legs, too, even though the trail network is pretty dense. Managed to fumble in the finish 'chute' by falling in the little creek about 10m from the finish box. Stacey and the kids ran white in about the same time I ran the green, though they played in the creeks on purpose. Afterwards the kids played at the new playground ziplines and then we had an early pizza dinner at Smith's Tavern. Lots of good reasons to be at Thacher today!
4. Pulled up to early looking around the earlier set of cliffs (sneaky!).
12. Wound up too far off-line to the right and wasted some time before recovering.
