November 2017 Challenge: Hunters Fall

They now stand out just enough that if I study them a moment, I don't get the fade out. My issue is astigmatism in both eyes... they are football shaped instead of orb shaped. It causes ghost images, almost double vision with high contrast stuff, and low to no contrast, it all blends together... The eye doctors recognize the ghost imaging(double vision) but the 'blending fade out' has them stumped. Over here, at least, they've never heard of it. So they don't know what to do about it. My glasses help...

Anyway, sorry for the rant, I'm just trying to explain the problem I'm having with your labels are probably just me. If others can see them, don't worry about my issue

I'm hearing you. Though, I'm not exactly sure how to go about fixing it. As I can't perceive the problem myself, I don't know how to fix it. Does it need to be a different color, thicker font, or what do you suggest I do?

It depends upon what you want to have. If you want the labels to have only a subtle presence in your map, you've reached a good point. If you want everyone to be able to read them easily, use a light color for the text.
