This map combines ITMB's old Lower Mainland Region map with their Whistler map. The Whistler side concentrates on the hiking/cycling summer activities and skiing/sledding winter activities of the resort community. The other side concentrates on the recreational activities of the area between Vancouver and Whistler, concentrating on the part of British Columbia along Howe Sound called the Sea to Sky Region.
The map includes some good insets; one of Whistler Village at 1:5 000 highlighting accommodation, shopping centres, bus stops, chair lifts, bike paths, etc., one showing the Whistler mountain bike trails and another with the hiking and mountain biking trails around Lost Lake. The other side of the map has a good inset showing downtown Vancouver at 1:12 500.
Topography is clearly defined with contours and altitude shading, heights of the main peaks are also indicated. The map is printed on paper.

Gloss Laminate
Gloss laminate makes colours look more vibrant and stand out more, but is quite shiny (reflective). If you’re planning on using a marker of any sort, this is a better choice because it’s easier to clean. Your print will be fully encapsulated (so laminated on both sides) in durable 80 micron laminate and will last you a lot longer than plain paper.
Matte Laminate
Matte laminate has a smooth, non-reflective, very classy looking surface. I wouldn’t say it dulls colours, but it doesn’t make them ‘pop’ (I hate that I just used that word) in the way that gloss does. Matte can be drawn on with pencil (and erased), but is harder to clean if you use markers. Your print will be fully encapsulated (so laminated on both sides) in durable 80 micron laminate and will last you a lot longer than plain paper.
Canvas
Everything looks better on canvas! Something about the texture really makes prints look wonderful. It is quite expensive though. We use a very high quality 340gsm artistic matte canvas. Your canvas print will come rolled with a roughly 50mm white border to allow you to have it stretched or mounted however you wish.
