    Ok, so I created a criminally-simple outline of topography and, with that as a base, took quite a few stabs in the dark and made temp / precip maps. Doing the temperatures felt ok, but I have much less confidence in the precipitation maps since a lot of those felt kind of like voodoo; in a lot of places there doesn't seem to be enough rain, but I don't really have a lot of intuition for what's reasonable here. In any case, here's what I came up with:

    I fed these into the climate script and, after hunting down some subtly mis-colored pixels, got a result. I haven't spent much time mentally processing this to find things that don't make sense (or editing out the abrupt transitions), but figured I'd put this up here to solicit thoughts. In particular, if anyone has thoughts on the precipitation maps and where I'm missing rain, I'd love to hear them
