We are very pleased with our purchase. The map is beautifully framed and top quality print. It’s a unique gift that was a meaningful memory- our favorite family hike. We purchased it for our 15 year old and he loves it. I will definitely buy from here again!

Returns and Refunds

Because I print each map specifically for each order, I’m not able to accept returns or offer refunds.
If your item was damaged during shipping, please let me know and I’ll work with my printing partner to send you replacement copy.

Process

I use precise digital elevation models (DEMs) to create shaded relief for every valley, ridge, peak, and river, which I add to vintage 1:24,000 topo maps from the United States Geological Survey. These historic maps were originally printed on a lithographic press and field-checked on foot, and they give each print a natural, authentic feel.

Commission a Personal Map

If I don't have a map for a trail or place you love, you can commission a personal map. You can also vote for the next map.

Legal Disclaimer

My maps are for illustrative purposes only. Although almost all the natural features are accurate, historic USGS maps are of varying age, reliability, and resolution, glaciers and routes above treeline change frequently. These prints should not be used for navigation, land ownership claims, or up-to-date information about public access.
