East map - not done yet

The week of mapping is over, and I did not finish the east map. The area across the creek turned out to be more complex and subtle than I thought. Good news for orienteers, bad news for the mapper. I spent two days trying to sort out the details of self-similar saddles, hills, and reentrants. Am I in this saddle or that one? Which hill is this again? And there are plenty of old roads that all seem to be going the same way. Not good when the mapper is confused. So I will need at least one more day, maybe two to finish up the east map.
