RHINO 6. A couple of inches of snow with more coming down and pretty cold, but I was dressed well for it. Dicey driving to get there, and I failed in my attempt to drive up the driveway, and I retreated and parked next to Phil by the mailbox. I carried a small flashlight for reading the map since the headlamp doesn't cast any light on it, and that worked satisfactorily. I used the low beam, and the strobing snowflakes were distracting at first. Couldn't figure out the trails on #3, and just went uphill through the green to get to the upper trail, which was probably slow. Short detour on the wrong trail going to #4. On #10, I probably could have executed the route better after I went by #8, but I don't trust the map much in that area, so I bounced off the trail intentionally. No idea how I managed to have such a good split on #1, but my bad finish split made up for it. (I clearly didn't give the GPS enough time to lock in before I started.)
