Results: Advanced and beginners and advanced e-punch splits.
The Monte Bello meet was successful in spite of the high temperature, which made physically demanding advanced courses extremely grueling. We didn't leave any people lost in the woods, but Monte Bello swallowed another e-punch unit during control pickup. If anyone would like to do some training in the guise of looking for it, I can send you a map showing the vicinity where it was dropped in the southwest corner of the park.
This kind of event cannot happen without a lot of work from a lot of volunteers.
Thank you to Ev and Jean Beuerman for doing their usual great job at handling registration under the trying circumstances of heat and insufficiency of White course maps. Having 100 instead of 50 would have been much better.
Thank you to Russell Green for mapping the Skyline side, designing the Brown, Green, Red and Blue courses and picking up part of the advanced controls.
Thank you to Dean French for designing the White, Yellow, Hard Yellow and Orange courses. Dean also took the first shift at beginner finishes and picked up most of the Skyline controls. He decided to add the Hard Yellow course, which was an excellent addition to the normal seven courses.
Thank you to Jeff Lanam for handling the e-punch stuff, including programming the units, delivering them to me, setting up and manning the download station.
Thank you to Frank Markowitz and Meg Gerstner for beginner starts. Meg also assisted with registration while the flood of people was there around 10am. She also checked paper-punch results, and was able to let me know when everyone who had gone out on the Skyline courses was accounted for.
Thank you to David Dreyfuss, Dan Greene and Van Boughner for beginner clinics. At the peak time, David and Dan were running clinics simultaneously. David Dreyfuss also helped pick up controls.
Thank you to Terry Farrah and Mike Fleishman for advanced starts. Mike interrupted his Green course run in order to relieve Terry at the scheduled time. When I relieved him, he completed his run. Terry Farrah also did a major chunk of control pickup.
Thank you to Jonathan and Laurie Seder who came back past the advanced start when they decided against tackling the star thistles, and were recruited on the spot to help carry everything up to the finish.
Thank you to Audrie Faist for working at finishes.
Thank you to Alan Glendinning for working at advanced finishes.
Thank you to Steve Haas and Robert Martinek for doing control pickup instead of running a course.
Thank you to Edith Jacobi and her daughter Aline for control pickup.
Thank you to Peter Graube for setting out the last couple of Skyline controls and the water stops for White and Yellow courses, and generally being a supporting and calming influence on a first-time meet director.
Thank you to the rangers who were very cooperative, including unlocking gates so that I could drive in on Monte Bello Road to drop Russell at the top of the park where he could set some of the last controls including one of the water stops on the Red/Blue courses, and then drive myself down to set another water stop and more controls, while the ranger drove Dean and 8 gallons of water in along one of the trails so that he could set 3 more water stops and the last two controls.
Thank you to Alan LaVergne for many things, including vetting control locations, e-punch assistance, advanced finishes, control pickup and keeping me sane.
Thank you to everyone else who helped, but whose names did not get written down.
