    Since this event was a little different Smile, a couple of notes about Route Gadget:

    The underlying image file shows all of the control circles.  If you visited a circle and got the answer correct then route-gadget will also circle the location.  However, if you punched the wrong control when no circle will appear.  With two kits, some wrong answer control numbers were used twice, so without reprogramming the controls we couldn't put all the wrong answers into routegadget.

    For controls 10, 15, 21, and 26, the correct answer was to punch nothing!


    Wyatt R, Petr H, Glen L, and Dave U all did the two maps version of the course (do what you want on a map with controls 1-16, return to start, then do what you want on map with controls 17-30).  So when looking at their routes, no they did not just choose a very sub-optimal route to visit controls!

    Thank you to Lena for getting a very odd route gadget up so quickly!

    I think punch-nothing controls were 10, *15* (not 14, that one did have a correct control), 21 and 26

    Was 26 the one with no control flags?  I didn't see any around 21ish either.  Just my luck, I tried to find/solve all 4 of the bogus controls, and did mispunch one of them.  Undecided

    Oh, just looked at the solutions and 21 was the no-flagger.  I must have missed 26.

    26 had a flag, but it was on the wrong boulder (on the other side of the indistinct trail) so the correct thing there was to not punch
