Title: Re: WCPP Maps

DD,

My only comment is that the web-based maps YOU produced for our WCP trip last year were every bit as good content-wise as the much more expensive outfitter-annotated variety.  The scalability factor also allowed you to create maps in very useful sizes.  Your maps not only offered greater definition of features than the regular park maps (due to the colors you added) but they were produce on high-quality waterproof paper AND they were reversible (ie. you flip it over & there was another park section mapped out on the other side, maximizing usable space)!  Your stuff was BY FAR more user-friendly than any existing alternative for canoeists who are trying to figure out where they are headed in a driving rain storm on choppy seas!

Wayne, I think you have a promising 2nd career ahead of you as a cartographer after you retire next year!!
