Well, just mark up a map copy with numbers (and arrows, if needed)  
and send back to bchoinski at comcast.net and I'll add it to the canvas  
layers.

I don't know if you want the minor lakelets named, but if you want it  
fire some names my way.

I plan to produce the map in two sections, Korchi north and Korchi  
south, printed in 8x11 landscape for each.
