Discussion: the what-ally challenged?

All right, I give up. I've checked my dictionaries and I've even tried the free online ones. Care to elaborate? I assume it is a reference to a lack of contours or vegetation?

It probably doesn't exist, and if it does it is probably mispelled, but since the park is Joyce Park I thought that a neologism was appropriate.

Iso-hypse is the technical greek term for contour line.

Well, hypothetically speaking, maybe if people start using "hypselitically challenged" to describe flattish orienteering terrain, maybe in a few years, a quote from your AP log will show up in the OED as the first known use of the word. Although perhaps the word is already there, but the unabridged dictionaries all seem to want you to pay a subsciption fee in order to look up obscure words.

Hypsos is height in greek, and (I just found out) related to Slavic vysoky. Cedarcreek took a course in etymology, so maybe he can find the right formation.
