j-man: There's not a lot of evidence of this, but for some reason it seemed to me that you may have been staying out of the lighter colors of green more than I might have thought necessary given the time of year...

PG: Pretty variable at Ancaster Creek and Mineral Springs, mainly because the map isn't great, especially with regard to the vegetation, mainly because it hasn't been updated for quite a while. And the vegetation also changes a lot from winter to summer conditions.

None of this was at all relevant for the NA Champs next fall. Today's (Sunday's) training will be.

hammer: Vegetation changes very quickly on those maps (they are 10 years old) because lots of the land is former agricultural fields that are growing back. Also a recent windstorm has made some of the white, light green with large trees down.
