My Review

Even though getting around usually requires a lot of swimming (the wood is on the west island and the cool stuff is on the east island), this deep water treasure has plenty of resources visible to the naked eye and a massive cave that is visually stunning. Overhangs a plenty and the east side of the map features even more bizarre mountains that are very difficult to navigate. This is a good seed for anyone of any skill level.

Images

So, once again I decided on three photographs instead of two. The first image is a waterfall flowing out from within an interesting rock formation. This was near where I spawned. At right (top), you'll see twin waterfalls flowing into a great shady basin. This was really quite a thing and it took me five minutes to find a good angle to capture how scenic this is.

Now, to say that this cave is large is an understatement. The mouth of this cave is completely black because the floor is so far down that light cannot reach it. Definitely worth checking out.
