Do you love a topographic sheet? Go gaga over gazetteers? Then check out the Recreational Atlases from Informap of Victoria.

The maps in the British Columbia Road & Recreational Atlas alone will practically give you vertigo from the shaded relief.There is an Atlas devoted to Alberta and two for Ontario.

Each Atlas details conservation areas (with services and facilities), hiking trails, parks (with detailed camping information), and tourist info centres. The two western guides list wildlife viewing areas. All are available through bookstores and www.Chapters.Indigo.ca
