Latitude 40° Maps offers the most visually sophisticated recreation maps available anywhere. Focusing on the splendor of the Colorado mountains and drama of Utah's canyon country, these maps combine digital cartography, shaded relief, and field reconnaissance to ensure fun and effective route-finding.
Whether you travel by foot, bike, horse or OHV, you’ll find these user-friendly maps the perfect guide to your journeys. Lat 40° maps include topographic contours, recommended routes, public access trail and road information, and explanatory notes -- printed on waterproof, tear-resistant plastic. These artistic documents feature either double-sided maps, or a reverse side filled with verbal route descriptions and route elevation/distance profiles.
For each map, these seasoned cartographers devote countless hours consulting with local governing agencies and public interest groups to ensure accuracy. They travel the routes with GPS (Geographic Positioning System) receivers, translating the land into the symbols of mapping. Their maps will carry you to the heart of the most important recreational destinations of Western Colorado and Utah.
"We learned the importance of a good, accurate map early on as outdoor enthusiasts in mountaineering, backpacking, sea kayaking, mountain bike touring, and back-country skiing. We make the maps we would like to have on our adventures--detailed, accurate, user-friendly, visually appealing, reasonably priced, durable topo maps packed with tons of useful information."
