11/27/2022 08:02PM Maps are like outiftters, canoes, tents etc... the best one is the one you like best. All of then listed on the site here are good-- it is really subjective to decide which is best . (Which is why I have two or three different ones on each trip :) ) I've always had a commitment problem...lol |

11/26/2022 02:36PM Check the Sawbill Outfitter website. They have a set of MacKenzie maps made especially for the them. An East Sawbill and a West Sawbill map. You will need the West Sawbill map. West Sawbill Map This map will cover all the way from Kawishiwi to LIttle Sag (S-N) and from Alice to the west end of Long Island Lake (W-E). It is a very useful map. If not this, then I also like the Voyager Maps. |

I second this suggestion. Voyageur has a good map for this area. It will take you as far east as Alice and Thomas and as far north as Boulder and Makwa. |

11/26/2022 06:57AM I always use Fisher maps but I am not sure I would really call them detailed. I do believe they are accurate though when trying to find sites and portages. |

11/26/2022 06:17AM Good Day to the forum! Will be hopefully doing a solo trip starting at EP 37 in mid May. Does anyone have an opinion on best map for that Area? I have the Nat Geo map at present, but wanted to get opinions before I pull the trigger on a Fisher, Voyageur or MacKenzie for a more detailed map of the area. Also, if anyone had the info on what military mapsheet covers this area? Im an old soldier, and 1/50,000 is my default setting so to speak. |
