I'll see what I can do.. It'd be a lot easier if one could travel there to see, record tracks and update the same day but there are some limitations around, you know :) Thanks!

This definately looks like a pretty unmapped area so your contributions are very valuable to OpenStreetMap. Check out the <a href="http://openstreetmap.org/?lat=10.304&lon=-85.236&zoom=10&layers=00B0FTF" rel="nofollow">cycle map</a> view of the area which shows contour lines. This gives a feel for the lie of the land in all the blank patches. As for the missing roads, we'll need your help for that! Guess there's a lots of rivers in amongst these mountains too. Good stuff.
