Leb Hills W (E-section) Hub and spoke O set by Mike and Julia. Old map lacking trails and lots of major veg changes. Pretty thick in places. Underlying terrain has a lot of contour detail and the trail system is complex. This was my first time on the map and it is an interesting location (small).
Didn't have time to do all 12 controls . NW section was thick and a challenge tough - contours only in thick green . Some hillsides were totally white woods (soil and leaf debirs kept buckthorn away ?) . Thanks Mike and Julia !
