No contour sheet; but what I get from flat maps hunches toward the long string in Rasles of Mats -, all meaning bad, my English/Ind. Rasles gets them (the mats-) all in a list. A long straight dead water shows now, per a dam I assume, & the look of everything gives me, as a woodsman, a poor feeling.
