HVO/WCOC winter series Brown at Pound Ridge. 3.5 km with no climb stated but there was plenty. Beautiful sunny day temp in upper 60s!
I'm not used to exercising in the warmer temps yet so HR was high especially on the climbs. Non-spike was #5 where I was on the parallel hill (under the circle) but looked around and saw it. And maybe #3 where I saw and headed for the smaller boulder first bit then corrected once up the hill.
My intended route to 4 was more like others on Brown did, but I let the vegetation push me off line and farther downhill than I intended. I expecred to hit the stone wall that crossed the trail, but the one I hit first had a perpendicular one nearby...uh oh. Finally figured out where I was and then I was just slow and careful because 1) rocks and 2) climb. Fun course and beautiful day to visit WPR! Sad that we missed the MA/CT crew but we had a DVOA event to go to. :-)
AOWN sightings: several bumblebees, a couple of mourning cloak butterflies (first butterflies I've spotted this spring), and a very bright blue bird near #4; either a male bluebird or maybe an indigo bunting. I didn't have a good look at him, but did note the blue, which almost distracted me from seeing the flag on the boulder....
