First Day of Cancadian Orienteering Champs.
Some minor mistakes but nothing major. Area
pretty green. Overall I was slower than possible but
happy with my performance.
Orienteering (Can short champs) 43:10 [4] 4.2 km (10:17 / km) +150m8:43 / km
Map way to technical for me. Out of start I was
lost. After having Jon Torrance lead me most of
way to number 1 I slowed way down until I could read what I running. Had one other sizable mistake but overall happy with my performance.
Hike to Icy "lake" and lower Reid falls above Skagway, AK with Ted. Icy lake is filled from a 10" diameter pipe that feeds from a dam at the top of Reid falls and then just blasts into the woods about 200m away from the falls. The pipe has been recently replaced, so the stream seems to just flow over the leaves and around trees and such.
Hike to Mendenhall Glacier in Juneau alaska with
Eddie Bergeron. Glacier was really cool (and cold).
We climbed down the rock to actually touch the
glacier.
