More blind compass navigation in a 'trail run' than I'd ever done before. Got a hand sketched paper map, and offer of $1 mini-compass (I brought my own), and at one point ,the course was described as 'turn into the woods where I park my car and wave you into the forest, then go Northeast (for a mile) to where a creek goes under this other road'. No course markings in this area. A mix of white to dark green, and a few small roads here & there. None of it mapped.

last ~3/4 of BAOC Blue
overall - the 1:12.5k made me undershoot a bit early, followed by the north lines being ~15 degrees off (I think I used the text / map-edge for rough compass a bit, as I was left on a few) Amazing wind - route choice affecting (~ridgeline gusts >60mph)
1: +1 min. of hesitation, confusion, drift left and overshoot come back up 3: +20 sec - climbed a bit much (bad rough compass) but corrected quickly and contoured, perhaps just 2 contours high mid route, and 1 at end. 4: +10 sec - hesitation/confusion as I climbed left of line - rock caught me 6: +15 sec - overclimbed (left) on the way in, dropped to bag) 7: +40 sec - missed right and had to climb back left to bag (saw it in distance before turning right down the ditch) - AJ & I think it may have been misplaced a little high? (seemed further from the trail) 9: +40 sec - dropped 3-4 contours, before deciding to contour, and then getting pushed uphill. Contouring immediately woul've been better, or perhaps just the full drop & climb I'd initially planned. 10: +5 sec. hesitating a bit high/right on the way in. ~3:10 lost total
