I had a quick check, and the none of the Mississipi, Ganges, Irrawaddy and
Nile deltas, all of which are similar in geography, are annotated like

tidyup. Also, none of them have a reindeer depot.
If you zoom in near the "reindeer depot", you'll see that Tuktoyaktuk
Winter Road and Aklavik Winter Road wander around in the river/lakes.
Is this a function of poor cartography, or that for part of the year
the roads are submerged? (Serious question, I am intrigued).
