We stock all of the 1:24,000 7.5 minute quadrangle maps for the areas in
and immediately surrounding Jackson County, North Carolina. These maps
are printed on 22 x 27 inch paper sheets by the United States Geological
Survey. With a 40 foot contour interval, they provide detailed
information about the landscape. These are useful tools for hikers,
hunters, horseback riders, bicyclists, researchers and property owners.
We also carry the folded 1:100,000 30X60 minute maps which cover the southern
mountains of western North Carolina, as well as the relevant folded/waterproof maps in the Trails Illustrated series from National Geographic. We are able to obtain maps and
charts as well as travelogues and guides for virtually any piece of land
or sea on the planet so, before your next trip let us help you get the
facts.
