hand-to-hand combat tempo 35:00 [2] 0.4 km (1:27:30 / km)

The absolute worst jungle I have even been in during an O' event, easily surpassing such favorites as the lush field of head-high prickers at the Sons of Norway meet, any mountain laurel anywhere (even at the Ratlum estate), and the three-story acres of deadfall at a rogaine in Washington state.

This area seemed to be a combination of two- and three-story blowdowns and logging slash with lush pricker growth, with the added benefit that we were there at night. Couldn't see enough to realize how big the area was, couldn't see enough to figure out the best way out. A lot of cussing. And a very strong desire to just sit down and cry.

Figured out after the fact that in the 35 minutes we spent there we had covered about 400 meters.

Other than that, the CNYO rogaine was just fine.
