Orienteering 1:17:57 [2] 3.32 mi (23:29 / mi) +130m 20:56 / mi
Beaver Brook, UNO green from 12/1. Went back today, temp was 50F, mostly cloudy and parking was completely empty. 2 weeks ago at the very same time, there were almost no spaces when I got there just before noon. Christmas impact today no doubt but what a day for a walk etc. Three people came just before I left. And still only that car 2 hours later.
The green course had 4 different first points - the rest were identical to brown. Couldn't be too careful going to 2, 5,6,7, 8. I'd already been to most of the hardest. Still had trouble with brown 4-green 8. It's probably OK mapped but the visibility is so low and contours so hidden by fir, it makes so much for a bingo point. I found it this time on a lone, nearby boulder, walking slowly, deliberately. The final point on the west side for both courses has some ups & downs not well mapped and the ride(s) seem(s) off too but I didn't stop to really figure out what exactly was going on. Chose different routes where it made sense. No snow on the ground. I'm impressed this was done in 60' by an unfamiliar name. There was a time when <10'/k was a given for me. This particular terrain challenges 'best laid plans'.
Map
Can't get the 310 to show splits on the gpx file try as I may.
Mostly back on 122 and 13, again thru Mt. Vernon, New Boston, Goffstown & Dunbarton...lots of NH charm.
