Notes

From map creator Marie Sayles: I started by using an online mapping tool called Mapometer. https://us.mapometer.com/ I was using this tool to plot our group hiking routes regularly, so thought it would be helpful for swimming. In the winter of 2020, I started asking club members about alternative routes for different distances, based on what the water is doing - flooding or ebbing. When I created the first of this series of maps on January 16, 2020, it was to help me track my miles for polar bear. I shared with other club members a number of times on the list serve, and finally printed a few versions in October 2020 to pot on the bulletin boards.
