Send Away #10

The Task


Starting from the gray cell, a package was sent through a series of cells before leaving the grid. In most cases, the package could have been sent diagonally. When exiting the grid, it was not diagonal. (It was due north, due south, due west, or due east) The rules of this puzzle are similar to previous Send Away puzzles except that clues are provided instead of arrows. Note that cells that the package did not go through do not have directions, and clues referencing cells north, south, east, and west of rows and columns do not include the referenced row or column. Also note that rows and columns have been numbered.

Notes

This was trickier and more time-consuming to develop than I originally expected. I wouldn’t be surprised if there are several redundant clues or some clues where the meaning isn’t clear. If you don’t understand what I’m trying to say, let me know. Hopefully, I have learned enough from this experience that later puzzles in the same style will work out better.
To get a sense of how these puzzles work, it is recommended that you start by solving earlier Send Away puzzles.
 

Feel Free to Comment

I always recommend figuring out HOW to solve puzzles with as little assistance as possible. You can still discuss solving tips and solutions if you would like. After you finish your first puzzle of this type, there is no reason to hide from the comments section to share your thoughts and perhaps help anyone who is stumped. You can also ask for clarifications regarding what clues were supposed to mean.
