REQUESTING GOLD MAPS

GOLD MAP SPECIFICATIONS: The gold maps are large size and large scale. They are printed in three colors on both sides of the 25 by 38 inch sheet and folded to 4 1/4 inches by 9 1/2 inches. The scale is 1 to 250,000 (one inch equals about 4 miles). Each gold map is a composite of portions of several U.S. Geological Survey Topographic Map bases. For your benefit, contour lines are omitted so that details stand out clearly. You will see creeks, branches, dams, dry washes, mountains, canyons, national forests, primary and secondary roads, trails, power lines, and rural schools and churches. You can tell the direction of flow of every little creek and branch.
