What people are saying

Thank you so much! The map is beautiful. A work of art.

Amanda Hoffus, Rossland, BC

I’ve just received the map -- it’s absolutely amazing, a legitimate treasure. It’s so cool to experience these mountains in a new medium; there are structures and continuities in the landscape that I hadn’t been able to perceive on ordinary maps (or by hiking there for many years).

Ben Radcliffe, South Pasadena, CA

I’m back from the field and had this wonderful shipment waiting in my office. I’ve just thrilled with the results. They look great and are a work of art for sure. Thank you so much.

Dick Mynen, Prince George, BC

Actually holding it in person is beyond breathtaking. The three dimensions, the bridges, the tiny shadows of the ridges cast in light....all amazing. Thank you so so very much.

I’m blown away. I can’t wait till my kids can see and understand this as well as how you made it.

Perfect!!!

The Slocan Valley in the Kootenays divides two magnificent mountain ranges: Valhalla to the west, Kokanee Glacier to the east. Adventurers from Nelson and beyond cherish the hikes to Gimli Peak, Gwillim Lakes, Idaho Peak and Kaslo Lake. Beware the porcupines, known to gnaw at the tires of cars parked below the peaks, if not wrapped in wire.
