Maxi Loop + Country Road (Permaculture) (1263)
Instruction:
A Maxi Loop puzzle and a Country Road puzzle have been combined in the grid. Each outlined region must be in either the Maxi Loop puzzle or the Country Road puzzle (but no region is in both puzzles). Note that due to the nature of the rules, for each puzzle, all its regions must be contiguous.
Maxi Loop: Draw a single closed loop that passes orthogonally through centers of cells. The loop must go through every cell exactly once. A number given in an outlined region indicates the longest (uninterrupted) length of the loop in that region (counted by number of cells).
Country Road: Draw a single loop that passes orthogonally through centers of cells. The loop cannot intersect itself or enter the same cell more than once. The loop must enter every outlined region exactly once (that is, for each region, all used cells must be consecutive along the loop's path). Cells not in the loop cannot share a regionboundary edge (that is, any pair of unused cells that share an edge boundary must belong to the same region). If a region contains a number, then that number of cells in the region must be used by the loop. The cell that contains the number may or may not be used.
