You are all very welcome!

I cut the crater list off at +/- 65 in longitude and latitude but my database goes to +/- 90. The minimum diameter is around 50km with exceptions like Moltke.

Really interesting to view these on the fringes (65deg to 90deg) as you have to wait for favorable lighting and libration to rock the Moon in position to see them better.

If you don't see one of your favorites on the list let me know and I'll gladly add it. I haven't checked this against the AL Lunar Club list but I think some are missing because of the longitude cutoff.

What's your favorite lunar feature?

Mine are
Crater = Walter, because of the sunset ray
Mtns = Jura and Heraclides Prom.

Clear skies all!
