1. | Really fine leg, Felt good moving, and read the hill on the right fine to the reentrant and over to the knoll. Feeling pretty spiffy. | ||||||
2. | +13:30 | On compass, passing Janet Tryson and Megan Donohue, between green patches, and - nothing there. Checked a variety of areas, saw some red runners, found a boulder with a streamer but no control, and eventually found my #13, which informed me enough to go back and get it. Really frustrating! | |||||
3. | +02:00 | Up on the spur and along the side to the circle, but then fussing around looking at all the rock blobs and not finding the control until Janet showed up again. | |||||
4. | Behind Walter Siegenthaler, but this was an easy control anyway. Just straight, ticking off the spur and knoll before this one and expecting it. | ||||||
5. | Nice route choice leg. Some folks went left. I went right and up the reentrant between the big rocks. Mary Jo was leaving as I approached, and Walter got there the same time, coming from the other side. | ||||||
6. | Down the broad yellow spur to the small slot to cross the marshy green and then along the trail - yellow control, really. | ||||||
7. | Straight, then crossed at reentrant and under the cliffs. Through yellow patch and on compass. Punched just behind Mary Jo. | ||||||
8. | On compass, until Mary Jo mentioned she could see the big rocks up above, then a bit easier. Just climbed until I got there, watching the reentrant. | ||||||
9. | Still with Mary Jo, around right side of big rocks and through reentrant and in. Walter showed up again from the other side. | ||||||
10. | Down the reentrant. Walter passed about halfway there and we went down the spur. Carl Childs leaving as we arrived. | ||||||
11. | Left around the rocks and then straight. Carl off in the distance, and apparently I'm ahead of Walter for a while, but he passed me in the last little bit and I punched not far behind him and Carl. | ||||||
12. | Back to the reentrant and speedy down the side of the green patch. Nice leg. | ||||||
13. | Went by #2 - not the best route, but familiar! | ||||||
14. | Chasing Ryan Breseman, but not catching him. Moving pretty well here. | ||||||
F. | Still chasing Ryan in vain. |
