Cards to Green for KZN

It has been quite a while since I have added anything to this blog, so the change in the map alongside is quite marked.
While we have been slowly chipping away along the N3 axis, Zululand has been moving along in leaps and bounds. This has been mostly thanks to the concerted and well planned efforts by John and Kim Cox.
Perhaps the biggest news since the last post has been the return of cards in QDS 2731DD, which has for a long time been empty. Trish Strachan, Richard Johnstone,  John and Kim Cox mounted a mini-expidition in early December 2012 and completed a number of empty pentads as well as completing second cards. So thanks to these four this QDS now has been quite well atlased.
As things stand at 20/01/2012, we have only 74 pentads of our 1296 for which we have no data. It would be really great if we could finish these pentads before the end of June 2012, or five fulls years of SABAP2.
Thanks to all have, and still are contributing to the project.
