Doug Peacock, inspiration for Edward Abbey's George W. Hayduke carried a map of his old backpacking haunts in Vietnam and did the same imagineering. As a Coast Guard Quartermaster, I was known to slip in bogus charts with stylized Tolkien seadragons and warnings of "Mer Incognito." First time compass and chart users should get their local area. You can easily translate local landmarks with the maps- assuming they haven't been 'developed.' <img src="images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />
