Mt Vic, probably the best use of the non-schools part of the map in all the times I've been here with some great route choice legs and no misguided attempts to try to maximise technical navigation. I missed seeing a few routes here and there through not seeing some of the fine detail until after the fact but I'm happy the routes I did use were equal or better for the most part. Execution was good too, just a bit wayward at the beginning of 5-6 which cost a bit of added climb but very little relocation time; and 9-10 slipped off a real track that would have almost gone directly to the control on to a phantom one which didn't. Again, quick to relocate from. This was after the 'natural' exit from 9 channeled me onto a route different from what I'd originally intended (but probably better!) but I don't think that contributed to the mistake at the end of the leg. Tough work but still felt good physically.
