Orienteering 1:34:22 [4] 6.85 mi (13:47 / mi) +1274ft 11:43 / mi
slept:8.0 shoes: Merrell Mountain Masocists III
Red (M40+) at French Creek.
Horrible mistake at CP4 cost me 20 minutes... It appears I was pulled down the hill by the fall line or I set the bearing wrong on my compass. Completely missed the first trail I came across. For some reason re-attacking from the wrong trail didn't occur to me as a problem even though I was in a swamp. Finally figured it out but by then the damage had been done.
I was fairly happy with the rest of the course, especially the long legs 2-3 and 9-10.
