Sage Stomp: Course 7 Medium Distance
jeffw
| 1. | Started off with a bad route choice. Rather than cross the fence immediately, I ran to the trail south of the start. I had to climb up on a boulder to jump across the fence. | ||||||
| 2. | Went straight up the reentrant. | ||||||
| 3. | Another not so good route choice. Should have left the control on a more direct route. Instead went south to the power lines first then followed them to the power poles nearest the control. | ||||||
| 4. | More or less straight. | ||||||
| 5. | Again should have left the control straight. Instead went south to climb up on top, then went through the big reentrant to the shelf. Stopped a little short of the control. Stradeski and Pippa were there also. I went high, but saw Allen punch in below. | ||||||
| 6. | Contoured back to the shelf and hit the depression on the back of the hill. | ||||||
| 7. | Down the reentrant to the trail. Cut through the vegetation in the light green area. Hit the trail and used the trail/spur junction as an attackpoint. Did the last climb to what I thought was the knoll, but no flag. There was a cliff right above me so I decided to go left. As soon as I turned I saw the flag. | ||||||
| 8. | Immediately went high to run down the long spur looking for the knoll. Attacked the again didn't immediately see the control. Saw it to my right. | ||||||
| 9. | As I left #8 saw Pippa coming in. Went around the right side of the hill. | ||||||
| 10. | Straight. | ||||||
| 11. | Went mostly straight. Saw Jon Torrance here. | ||||||
| 12. | Went straight. Saw the small hill in front of the control from a long ways away. Unnecessarily waded through the swamp. | ||||||
| 13. | Hoped to go between the pond and the marsh with dry feet, but it was all knee deep water. Heard Pippa behind me. | ||||||
| 14. | Went up the long reentrant to the very small pond (much smaller than what was shown on the map). | ||||||
| 15. | Straight. Had to be careful because the reentrant was not as clearly defined as I thought it would be. | ||||||
| F. | Long brutal run in. |
