[fixed] DEM data outside available area is always -32768m

I see from https://alpinequest.net/en/help/v2/elevations that the DEM data is "available between latitude 56°S and 60°N"; however, outside that area (most of Alaska is outside that), the elevation still shows but always as "-32768m". Also, the app continues to generate and store DEM map tiles with these erroneous values, consuming storage space. I assume Short.MIN_VALUE is used as some sort of error/unknown value, but the app is trying to use it as real elevation data. Can AlpineQuest be made to hide/ignore these values?

Hi Cody,
You're absolutely right, this is wrong (this is a new bug in 2.0.8).
It will be fixed in the next update (almost ready).
Thanks a lot for the report.
