What I am about to post is based on Viking4570's + Uufflakke's work.
Long disclaimer...for the map to install, you only need the readme in the download. The original map from scratch is by viking4570.
Uufflakke modded it and added waterfalls at the western section of the Canyon and some new textures IIRC.
So, as Uufflakkes big fan and since I also modded this map a minor tad, I was disappointed to see that particular thread with Uufflakke's work down. And this minor tad I am speaking off proved to be very effective, even if not perfect. I had forwarded this map way before Uufflakke left to HistoMod as well. So what to do, IMHO here "ownership" took a direction into absurdity.
Dear Uufflakke, if you read this, and really cannot live with this map in this version reuploaded, you can reach me also at AAS via pm or HistoMod via pm etc...basically all/most IL-2 forums except UP where I forgot my login lol..
I included the new Hi Res trees by Uufflakke in a slightly downsized version for chaps with isues on the HiRes mod
and the original version.I advise everyone to use the
high res mod and
carsmaster's "Light in the IL2 by carsmaster". That one is also available in an easy version for those with trouble.
For 4.12, you need the 4.09m version of "Light in the IL2 by carsmaster", classfiles deactivated.
You can deactivate the classfiles by either deleting them or putting a minus sign -like this "-" in front of them.

No harm intended. I spent at least 10-20 hours with my ridiculous small add on in this version as well. And TBH it is this addition which
stands out as extra when you fly over this map at high alt at the canyon.
The waterfalls are the super cake on top as well as Uufflakke's other texture additions. He da man.
And I do not want to add my stuff on top of the base map, would be a regression par excellence..since this map came quite some roads.
Uufflakke, your all your work is marvellous!
I wish you came back to SAS, I miss your talent and humour. And MTO additions. Without you, I would not even know how to make Bump files. You left, that sucked.
Hope you are fine and healthy.
