Field Checking 50:00 [2] ** 3.0 km (16:40 / km)
shoes: Icebug SISU olx
Block vetting a group of W, Y, O controls on the lower part of the map. Ran/jogged much of it but made several stops to make fine adjustments to control locations (making White controls extra visible mostly). Chilly when I started at ~7:30am.
Spent most of the rest of the day on my feet orchestrating control pickup and packing up equipment. Picked up one control (the "GO" control) thanks to lots of volunteers offering their help. Done by 6pm.

Field Checking 30:00 [1] ** 2.0 km (15:00 / km)
shoes: Icebug SISU olx
Only six block vet loops to be done, so it was all handled by the rest of the team. After competition was underway, I headed out to hang two Day 2 controls in the campground area, place the downhill Day 2 start triangle marker and streamer to the Day 1 start.

Up the hill to set up the Day 2 Start and hang streamers (on the way back down). Pushed a bit on the climb. Saw a few competitors out on the course (most in the process of descending the hill).

Field Checking 2:00:00 [1] ** 4.0 km (30:00 / km)
Day 1 bags and epunches are all in the woods (plus some Day 2). Did two smallish loops while my very capable team of helpers got the bulk of them out. Light rain with occasional heavier showers. Breeze started to pick up about noon but so far this weather event has fallen short of the dire predictions. Lots of leaves (and acorns) dropping. The marshes will not be dry.

Field Checking 3:30:00 [2] *** 6.0 km (35:00 / km) +100m 32:18 / km
Hanging bags (and epunch units). Slogged 23 gallons of water to five different points, over much shorter distances than yesterday (with trivial climb by comparison).

Field Checking 5:00:00 [2] *** 15.0 km (20:00 / km) +600m 16:40 / km
Slogging water up the hill. Three times with 4 gallons each time. Got all of the uphill water stops stocked (not just me, there were about 10 of us). You people better drink this stuff!
