back to the topBackroad Mapbooks
Ontario is a big province and Backroad Mapbooks are well known as the outdoor recreation map source for Ontario, especially up north. They offer maps covering Southwestern Ontario, Cottage Country Ontario maps, Eastern Ontario maps, Northeastern Ontario maps and Northwestern Ontario maps. On top of that, there are many more Mapbooks that cover other provinces. Backroad Mapbooks offer information for fishing, hiking, camping, exploring, canoeing, hunting or pretty well any other outdoor activity in Canada.
These maps combine city and rural roads with current forestry and logging road maps. A wide variety of trail systems are highlighted, that range from popular hikes to a host of off-road routes. To aid users the trails are marked with symbols designating which type of user can access the trail wherever space allows. Another helpful feature is the fact that ATV, snowmobile trails and long distance trails are highlighted with a background colour to allow for easier navigation. For paddlers, access points, portages as well as the water route itself are indicated. Besides parks, you will find a wide range of other recreational opportunities marked. These range from beaches to wildlife viewing opportunities. For hunters and anglers, Management Units are included. On top of showing soft shadows and highlights to accentuate the changes in the slope of the terrain, the colour changes to match the elevation. These feautures, together with contour lines give a great impression of the landscape and make these maps full blown topographical maps.
Blue numbers represent UTM Grids and the black numbers represent Longitude and Latitude reference points.

How to use
The backroad mapbooks are very user friendly. Simply look up the lake name
of interest in the index. You will see a map number beside the lake name. The
map number will also be the page number in the book. Turn to that page number
and start planning your next adventure.
The backroad topo maps tie in nicely to the mapbook as well. The page number
from the book is also the map number.
For example, to look up: Dog Lake
Index reference is map 15
Dog Lake, map 15 is on page 15
To order, the Dog Lake topo map would be map 15
Chaltrek stores their maps in a flat format, so you can fold your map your way or
even have it laminated.
