    Incorporating the Latest Information: The "Mountain and Highland Map" prioritizes "utility" for both planning and executing mountain journeys. It verifies information on hiking trails, mountain huts, water sources, hazardous spots, and landmarks through on-site surveys, providing you with the most up-to-date data.

Furthermore, it is treated with "varnish finishing" to prevent ink smudging, ensuring you can confidently unfold it even in rainy or adverse weather conditions. 

    Additionally, the map features regularly spaced "magnetic north lines" on its surfaces, making it easier to discern the deviation between true north and magnetic north as indicated by a compass.
