Big thanks to Eric Buckley for putting on a great meet in an awesome park. Here’s Eric’s summary below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This fall’s (winter’s?) event at Hawn was my first event directing in quite some time, and it showed. Included in my gaffes was leaving the results in the equipment bin which is why these are being posted two weeks after the fact. Thanks for all your patience!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That said, it was a great day to be in the woods. Most felt that the unexpected snow enhanced the experience. The courses were a bit longer than intended. I could chalk that up to the snow, but one of our fastest navigators, Nathan Graves ran it in 1:40:25 the following week in perfect conditions, so I think the vegetation at Hawn has just thickened up a bit since the days when we used see the top folks running 8-9 minutes\/K.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Three courses were offered. A traditional Yellow, and a long and medium Pink. The long Pink included a couple legs that wouldn’t be completely out of place on an advanced course, though they had catching features to keep intermediates from getting too off course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Due to the cold, the ball point pens weren’t working particularly well. Apologies to anyone whose name is misspelled below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
