Full control but fairly safe along roads and paths. 5 to 6 would have probably been faster to take the road earlier. 6 to 7 instead of ZigZag maybe a loop to the right around the start would have been smarter..

Firmaliiga 5/2015, Salmi
Firmaliiga 4/2015 Nuuksionpää
1: too much zigzag along paths with a big U-turn before the control
2: OK
3: ran past the control, then to the wrong stone (some other course had a control here), and then back to my control
4: OKish but straighter would have been better
5: OK until I was distracted by others just before the control and made a stupid loop before returning to the original plan.
6-7-F: nothing to report..
Hot and humid.
Kiintorastit Pirttimäki
Quite warm and humid on Saturday.
OK in the beginning: start-91-86-88-84-89
The last two controls were difficult, 97 on a steep downslope where we climbed the hill a bit too soon, and struggled to get down from the hill after finding the control. 92 was easy enough to get close to, but in hindsight I suspect it's not actually located in the place indicated on the map...
Fagersten
Kiintorastit Solvalla
Another run on the Solvalla map with fixed controls. Last one was in April.
Problems on the second control (#50) where at first I didn't know exactly where on the dashed path I had come down from the hill, and then inside the control circle I looked for stones north up the hill when the control-stone was lower down in the forest.
Louna-Jukola
Itärastit Paloheinä
Last itärastit event for this spring. See you again in August.
Probably also last orienteering practice before Louna-Jukola next weekend.
#2 found the correct ditch but passed close by the flag before turning around to find it. +2 min.
#9 ran too far along the road and passed close to #4 before turning towards the control.
#15 nothing much wrong but still a bad split. straighter through the green apparently is faster.
