Waterproof maps covering mountainous regions in Great Britain from Harvey at 1:40,000, with a geological map of the region on the reverse as well as advice on navigating the region safely.

MAIN MAP: Topography is shown through clear altitude shading, spot heights, contours at 15m intervals, and index contours at 75m intervals. A variety of symbols are used to show terrain detail, such as caves/mines, major and climbing crags, shafts, sinkholes, cairns, and large boulders. Each map is GPS compatible, with the National Grid overprinted on the cartography.

Rights of way shown include tracks, long distance and intermittent paths. Road detail includes minor, residential and forest roads; railway lines and stops are marked, as are chairlifts and ski tows. Points of interest and facilities such as campsites, information points, and mountain rescue post are prominently highlighted.

ENLARGEMENTS: Some maps include enlargements of certain summits and passes, with tips on navigating the region on.

GEOLOGICAL MAP: The reverse of each map shows a geological map of the region from the British Geological Survey, with detailed relief shading and colours used to denote different types of rock. There is additional written information on the rocks and landscape, as well as a geological timeline of the region.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Each title also provides information on emergency procedures, with useful contact numbers provided. Some titles also have lists of local climbing venues, mountaineering club huts, and mountain bothies.

Printed on tough, hard-wearing polyethylene, the maps are waterproof, tear-resistant, and come in a clear plastic wallet.
