    Thx for sharing. Were you trying to navigate using less obvious features as opposed to the two rides on the way to #2?...🤔 video was blacking out several times...

      Thank you. Yes, my first idea was to use the rides you mention, but I had a hard time locating them and therefore hesitated way too long on the path right after control 1. I therefore decided that I could simply use the slopes as catching features which would guide me to the control. The map indicates that I would have to walk through the thicket, but it was actually fairly open and I just needed to keep a compass bearing in the right direction.
      "Rides" in Danish forests (called "hugninger" - aka "clearances in Danish) vary greatly in visibility. In some areas they are as easy to follow as paths. In other areas they are simply the remnants of the paths of logging machines. Here I believe they were visible, but if you look closely at the map indicates, they don't really attach to the main path. I missed that detail.
      I just rewatched that part of the video, and the video doesn't black out at my end. It may help if you adjust the Youbute quality to "automatic".
