DuPont State Forest Orienteering 5/14/11

It has been a while since I have posted. I have to catch up!




The whole family made the trek to the DuPont State Forest for the last meet of the year.




Mark Jr., Jennifer and Darwin did the White Course and finished 1st out of 1, Joey ran Yellow and finished 2nd out of 11 and to keep it short, I ran Orange and finished 3rd out of 9. All the courses were pretty long and the green is already grown in.


I continued my crazy start process and wandered around to find point number 1, then it was through the first very green gully to #2. I took the easy way down the trail up to point 3. 4, 5 and 6 were all easy in a line. Had to break heavy brush to get to 7,needed a machete!. 8 was a little hard. I had been losing a lot of elevation and was about to make it up. Point 9 was difficult to get to because of the steep valley, so I opted to jog the trail all the way around. That cost me the win. The remainder of the points was easy and it was back to the finish.
