West Point National Event
Running in M70+, Brown-X course with a nice (enlarged!) 1:7500 map! Like several others, could not find control #1, because of un-mapped cliffs behind the boulder where the flag was hidden. Only when a racer emerged from behind the rock did I realize: That is a boulder ?! Took it slowly for the rest trying to be "in control" at all times. No major mistakes until the finish. Nice to be back with the sport and the great community of orienteers.
