Planner's Notes (Fred Miller)

I did not think anybody would get all 27 controls on the score event, but I certainly did not intend to ensure this by mangling the control descriptions. The only excuse I can offer is that in the course of making numerous changes to the two maps, to get the right balance, the corresponding cutting and pasting failed to keep up. My apologies to all who lost time looking for phantom controls. My apologies too, for not amending the description of control 1 to read 'Hill summit N side'.Easy to spot from the path, impossible from the ridge top.

Still the weather was amazingly kind, and only one hand-made control had to be hastily replaced, so I hope you all enjoyed it despite the muddled descriptions.
