Very neat! Do you want people to include non-wilderness rooms as full leagues when making their estimates or should they designate those parts of travel another way? A lot of these places require off-road travel.

Good question! Explorable areas (non-wilderness) are often contained within a league or two. If it's not a case of being able to see both sides of the explorable area and making a guess that way, I'd say it's fine to guestimate that each "sub-area" is a league or two for this project, though that's not a hard rule of distance in general. Go with your gut - I'll correct if I feel it's necessary.
