a recent careful second try at diagramming the territory of the incredible
agua caliente indian reservation in & around palm springs california
that first & most extreme example brendan raised earlier
has produced the attached artwork

checkered dreamscape original by ulysses s grant

featuring a total of 60 boundary crosses
or 5 more than previously recognized
which thus increases the american total to half a gross of these buggers


other vital agua caliente data

1 metro area at left center comprising almost 7 milesquare sections
2 hourglass shaped megapeneexclaves of 2 sections each
1 continuous network of all the above plus 40 other peneexclaves
mostly single sections linked by from 1 to 6 boundary crosses each
43 total networked shapes comprising roughly 50 sections
0 true exclaves

3 maxipeneenclaves of 5 sections each
with 8 boundary crosses each
1 hourglass shaped megapeneenclave of 2 sections
1 continuous network of all the above peneenclaves plus 12 others
all similarly configured as above except in negative space
17 total networked shapes
1 nonnetworked peneenclave
1 true enclave
19 total territorial interruptions

4 dangling shapes or singlecrosses
16 swinging shapes or doublecrosses
23 networked shapes or multicrosses

the arrow in the art marks a faultline in the public land fabric
& explains 2 of the 3 hourglass anomalies
while the 3rd was owing to a different freak happenchance

note the particularly well nibbled end at lower right
