North Shore of LAKE ONTARIO. Super Detailed Map of Toronto to Ottawa! Colour - $5 - (Hamilton, ON)

Normal 0 MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 My late father was really into hiking, and I’m selling off some of his stuff. This auction is for a massive and incredibly detailed map from the area around the north shore of Lake Ontario. The map stretches from Toronto in the west, toward Ottawa in the east, with everything in between in super detail. The map covers the north shore of Lake Ontario, but also stretches as far north as to also encompass Algonquin Park. Halifax urban area also incuded. H This map was produced by the Federal Government of Canada’s “Surveys and Mappings Branch” of the Department of Energy, Mines and Resources, (based on military surveys) and the level of detail is completely fantastic! It is on a scale of 1:500,000 and is in complete colour. The map's right side margin has been cut down (but with no loss to detail -- see scan). Otherwise, it is in excellent condition. This map would be interesting for anyone who was involved in hiking, canoeing, road-trips, geo-cashing, rock climbing, and the outdoors life in the Toronto area -- all easily accessible by auto! Also, anyone who was also interested in surveying and the art of map making. You used to be able to order these maps through the mail from the Federal Government back in the 1970s for a small fee. They no longer provide this service, and thus those who want to go exploring in the Canadian wilderness need to pick up old maps on Ebay or elsewhere, such as these! The map is in excellent condition, with no writing on it, and no rips or tears, no staining or soiling. (Fold marks, of course.) The map is printed on high quality paper, in full multi-colour The top bidder should add $2.50 postage within Canada, or $6.90 for mailing to the USA. (I have a few other maps up now too, so check them out & combine cheaper postage on multiple lots!) Thanks for looking!!
