    Awesome. Looking great so far. I love the P-A and lived in Monterey for several years so I'm looking forward to this one!

    Thanks, Mearrin.

    Here's some more color added, and a first pass at locating some sites of major ruins...

    You know Diamond, I just had a thought, with how the one lake up along the top is open (there's no border that cuts it off), it might also look cool if the mountains also weren't cut off, if you know what I mean.

    This is looking better and better.

    @moutarde: There's going to be a border; that's why I left the area all along the edges empty instead of extending the map to the edges.

    Here's one more update for today, then I need to eat some dinner.

    Might want to pump up the orange city-border a tad to make it pop a bit more and maybe darken up the mtn label with some more lines or thick black stroke but otherwise, this is great.

    Nice!

    My only little nit-pick is the label for the 'Sierra Mountains' is very tough to read (at least for me).
