                Fun! A treat without the angst of, well, a couple of other "challenging" puzzlers I've been dealing with -- :)
                • edestlin 🤓5:33 · 2022-05-01T13:24:37.278Z

                            And I was just editing a chapter about Y2K! Thanks, Will -- lots of fun.
                            • Bird Lives 4s · 2022-05-01T19:26:36.062Z
                              I remember another mountain puzzle from Will -- "One Up," (https://pandorasblocks.org/oneup) -- a brilliant construction. Also much more difficult. This week's is an easy climb.

                                    Got this one with only 1/4 the grid filled. Halfway through the 2nd theme entry. :-)

                                      That's where I had it pegged, too!

                                        Actually, this was my first thought from the title before I started on the meta. My second thought was, nah, that's too short of a name for a meta. Hah!
