no amount of additional trying for bzgtmx will increase your total <br/>
count of tricountry points tried<br/>
because bzgtmx has already & rightly been counted in your <br/>
present total of 25 tried<br/>
<br/>
in this olympic event<br/>
you can have as many tries as you like but you can only count <br/>
them all once per point <br/>
<br/>
better to try a different point to increase your count<br/>
like say el trifinio gthnsv <br/>
aka montecristo <br/>
should you ever be in the greater bzgtmx neighborhood again<br/>
<br/>
& of course you dont have to actually go there & pay the optimum <br/>
visit class a or b <br/>
to count it as a point tried<br/>
so long as you earnestly tried<br/>
<br/>
which you have already done in this case <br/>
by booking & scheduling a guided tour at such close range <br/>
before being forced by circumstances to cancel it iirc<br/>
<br/>
thats one of the great benefits of class e<br/>
<br/>
indeed several of the other points that were counted in the totals <br/>
that determined the standings were also for class e tries<br/>
<br/>
the elusiveness of a point doesnt diminish the fact of the try for it<br/>
