I made these maps to avoid hauling a bunch of quadrangles around the backcountry and making a mess of them everytime I went out. I offer them to you for your convenience. I have added notes but please be careful - you may disagree as to the difficulty of various sections. And things change.

I have compressed the maps as much as possible to make them convenient to download. They are cut into chunks to fit an 8-1/2"x11" piece of paper. Maps have a scale on them that is accurate. All maps are at 180 dpi, and most have one side that is either exactly 10" or exactly 8".

How you print them will depend on your available resources. I import into Photoshop, or Photoshop LE, and print them. (Photoshop LE is a great bargain, especially if you buy it packaged with Pagemill for even less). If you don't have an Image Editing program, you can download a trial copy of Paintshop Pro at ZD Net. Printing from your browser will produce only low-resolution images.

Most printers are either 300 dpi or 360 dpi. If your printer is not a 360 dpi printer like mine, you might get better results if you re-size the image to 300 dpi or whatever works with your printer.

Here's the map printing sequence:

1. From the individual hike window, click on the small map or text link to bring up the big map. The big map is about 400 kB.
2. Right-click on the big map, and saveas to your "Canyoneering" directory.
3. Open the big map in Photoshop LE or a similar image editting program.
4. IF your printer is not a 360 dpi printer, resize the image (using the Image Size function) to 300 dpi, keeping the length of the map the same (usually 10"). After resizing, you may want to use the sharpness filter.
5. Print Map from Photoshop LE. If necessary, adjust the lightness and the contrast for better readability with your printer.

To print the text, rather than printing from your browser, copy the text to your favorite word processor program, then re-format to fit the page. I have started to add a "EZ-Print Files" to each page, which is a very simple text page better for printing. Where available, use these.
 

Good luck, and please email me if this works for you, or if you would like something else.
