Yes, it's a 2x vertical exaggeration. It makes it easier to see the hills in front of homeplate.

QUOTE (alan @ Jan 5 2006, 12:05 PM) Bitchin'! Now we've gotta plan how to climb this sucker. I would propose something like below. Sneak up on the back side to the greatest exposed section, then zip up to the west corner in a head-first slide. "Safe at Home! " We can decide whether it's worth mapping and whether there's a safe descent to the south after we get there. If it's just the same as the light exposed stuff we've been driving over, I'll be disappointed, but there should be a nice view anyway. -------------------- My Grandpa goes to Mars every day and all I get are these lousy T-shirts!

Alan, could you post the non-processed image (without route marks)?

With or without the verticle exaggeration?

The contours on that OSU route map seem to be suggesting block faulting on some of the hills! That's the first time we have seen anything like that on one of the maps, iirc.

QUOTE here's what I've got: Very good! QUOTE seems to be suggesting block faulting I noticed that, too, and I'm thinking that it may be an anomaly in the gridding software they use to generate the topo maps. --Bill -------------------- |

No - there's a 'ripping' to the stereo interpolation there - that's not real features. - some go straight thru El Dorado, and we KNOW what that's like.

alan - love your maps. But I think the black numbers on the dark ground could be made better..
I tried making yellow numbers and I think it shows up much better Only a suggestion to improve your wonderfull maps -------------------- "I want to make as many people as possible feel like they are part of this adventure. We are going to give everybody a sense of what exploring the surface of another world is really like"
