I did some mapping while up here, ... a little break from the Canada Import conversion fun.

I mapped out some paths to the beaches and added more points in town. The next one around will probably want to draw in outlines of buildings.. but for now the points are in there... so its good.
Added in some bus stops, and main attractions.

There is a new development that has been just finished... i wish i could stay here longer. :( ... i'll leave that for someone else.

I went whale watching, and saw lots of islands, and some that i put in there. (and a few Grey Whales too). Some of the islands were natural=wood right up to where it would be coastline... but there were lots of reefs that all need to get mapped, as well as the buoys that are around to help boaters.

... it would be cool if there was a way that boaters with their GPS's could submit their depth readings and have then posted a nodes with the depth number, as these help give an idea of where water is at.
.. i think thats the idea with the openseamap project.

Oh ya, subject line. With regards to surfing as a sport. Its generally understood that these ideal surging spots do NOT get mapped. So just listing the beach name is (whats physically on the ground).

What's cool is that you can see all the rocks now, and how that help form these beaches, and awesome waves.

Thats all for now,
