Nice Upgrade! However, you kept the same old lake descriptions and directions to the lakes. Some of them are considerably difficult to follow. Especially if you aren't familiar with the area.
Here's my suggestion. You need to use the maping APIs of Local.live.com. This will give your readers better direction on where exactly the lakes are and how to get to them. For example, check out my map collection of fishing lakes. Granted, what I'm suggesting isn't a collection. It's basically getting a map for the lake from Local.live.com. I'm not 100% sure what kind of data you need to get the pin on the map, but I've seen lot's of places that use Local.live.com to map locations. It probably can't be that hard. And I'm sure that there's lots of us who will help mapping out the lakes.

RE:Maps to lakes
Hi Mikey,
Thanks for the suggestion. We actually have this "in the works", although not using LocalLive. We would like to intergrate the reports into the directions, part of an enhanced package. Can't give you a time frame just yet, only that we are aware and working on it.
Your map collection is way cool, BTW. I like how you linked into our reports. Thanks for your offer to help, we will keep it in mind.
