Doug Scott is a friend of ours (Friends of Berthoud Pass) and we always try to have a few of his maps on hand for sale to members. Good guy and great product. Definitely gets a Good Pinner Seal of Approval.
cool - Pinner, have you used any of these maps much? I have never run accross maps like this before - is the idea just that you have a better idea of the general (historical) risks of the area you are in and you know better where to dig your pits? I want to get his 3 Anchorage area maps I think...
Yep, that's definitely part of it.
Any idea if there are valdez area maps available?
PM Avmapper, that is Doug's board name here. He comes here only occasionally, I am trying to work on a project with him with our handheld equipment.Quote:

Email is your better option. If you have trouble getting ahold of him, pm me and I have his phone number.
