Iltarastit, Pirttibacka

2013_09_15_iltarastit_pirttibacka

Quite tired legs today...
#1-#2-#3 OK with a bit conservative route to #3
#4 the plan was to run west until I see the blue wet area and then turn left for the control. But the swamp never appeared and this required some re-location + searching.
#5-#6 OK
#7 difficult control in a very detailed area.
#8 probably distracted by the extra time spent at #7 I also made a mess out of #8...
#9-#10-#11-#12-#13-F OK but not great.

Orienteering close to the Ämmässuo/Käringmossen trash dump.

#1 a bit tentative, maybe should have used the path SW of the control
#2 OK
#3 good orienteering into the control-circle, but then failed to find the flag for about 3 minutes...
#4 the plan was to use the cliff (blue line on the map) to find the control, but I failed to execute and circled around the hill on the wrong side. Another +3 min mistake.
#5 no mistakes but slow
#6-#7-#8 OK
#9 initially I had the right direction out from #8, but then somehow deviated down the wrong side of the hill (looking at the compass might have helped). Maybe 2-3 min lost here.
#10-#11-#12-F mostly OK

I didn't make it into the official results but my placing is roughly 20./62.
