Top-notch terrain. An Elite Classic that was actually won in over 85 minutes, on one of the best maps I have ever run on. An utterly frenetic relay first-leg. And even the weather wasn't too bad. Thank you.

Stirling Surveys. I am in awe of all the time and effort that must have gone into that map over the years.

It's even more remarkable to know that the data it's based on isn't all that accurate, we (ESOC) have been trying to find the time/money to get it redone using better data.

I agree the Craig a Barns map was just fantastic especially the contours. It all just made immediate sense which was a joy. Plus bits were actually quite runnable especially that little "white corridor" on the longish legs across the top.
