The position of the digital mile markers in Minnesota are in place. I wasn't going to overlay the state forest maps, but I changed my mind. Then I realized that I didn't account for Minnesota DNR's camping shelters, so I went back and cataloged those, other backpack sites and parking areas. At that point, I determined that I needed to go back through all three national forest websites and determine if I was missing campsites and picnic areas (parking)? Minnesota really took a while and I'm glad that it's over.
This state was kinda hard. All the waypoints adding up and the shapes of six MN DNR divisions and 3 national forests, plus their roads and trails was really taxing The Robot. I'm a volunteer. With Wisconsin and Pennsylvania remaining, the worst is over for now. The hardest part now will be backing down the track on the North Country's concurrency with Finger Lakes. That's a 429 mile track with frequent markers. I'm lucky I got 429 miles to merge. You could probably thank Finger Lake's GIS for that. They made it snap together so well.
