Money Rocks Usynligo short course - that was plenty for me today.
Most of the control locations were fairly straightforward, but the map was also very basic so it was sometimes hard to tell what exactly you were looking for. I set off 10 before 1 because they were very close together. The only one I had a lot of trouble with was 4. It was on a property corner/park boundary and this is a part of the county where you don't want to just be wandering into somebody's yard. I followed a stream to the east from 3 and when I saw boundary signs I followed them north - but I never reached a corner. I ended up back at the trail. So I used a lot of the app cheats/hints to find the location, where I could definitely see somebody's bench, deer feeder, etc. There must be multiple boundaries in this area, and I wasn't about to cross one.
Due to being uncertain of that location, I took a long trail route around to 5 which added much distance, but the trails were beautiful so it was ok.
