  1. For the first time this challenge, I fully used #QGIS to render the map. In previous maps, I would create a simple HTML+JS-based map or do the final polishing in GIMP or Inkscape. This time, I used QGIS to render and style symbols+labels, and used the Print Layout feature to add the surrounding texts.

    Data sources:
    ▪︎ Base raster map and water outlines from #NaturalEarth
    ▪︎ DEM data for hillshading from #SRTM via #Mapzen’s terrain tiles
    ▪︎ Ultras data from Peaklist: peaklist.org/WWlists/ultras/ph
