PRODUCTION AND REVISIONS:
Created by David Bakker in 2017-2019. Open Orienteering Mapper
(0.8.1) filetype. A letter sized at 1:10000 chunk was completed and
used in spring 2017.
The map was expanded to the South to the northern edge of the private
land in fall 2017, resulting in drastically different vegetation mapping
in the two parts (Devil's club and ferns had not yet grown during the
spring mapping, but were in full force during the fall). Map has since
been corrected to mostly rectify this situation, showing fall
vegetation. The remaining portion of the map completed in summer 2018.
Small expansion of around 1 square km on the NE corner in summer 2019.
