Great

Thanks! Today, I scanned the 1983 and 1998 AAA maps. Look for them to be added soon.

Now, I need to get back to adding photos to the new interactive map: https://vivabaja.com/explore/baja-photos-map/

So much Baja, so little time!

Don't forget to include the maps of the cities and the regions of the peninsula please.

From the 1900s to present

Most of the maps I scanned are of the entire peninsula... Have a look. If there are maps you would like to see, send me a link or the map to consider adding!

A Nomad from East Cape has been scanning a 1987 Mexican made Baja map and it has city maps on it, too. Look for it to be added when we are done with prepping it for the page!

All right, for nomads like him, your map library (actually it is our map library) will grow like foam and will be the most complete.

The 1984 AAA map was just added... a few more to go and we will have all the Auto Club maps (less the ones we still need) online to view.

Please look for the 1970 edition. It is important to show the transpeninsular highway progress from La Paz north.

Here is the request at the top of the maps webpage:

Missing some Auto Club Maps, can you help?:
IF they exist, I would love to have or get your scans of:
1970, 1976, 1977, 1981, 1986, 1993, 1999, 2002.
Plus, any editions from 1935 to 1954;
Also, a better 1972 map than I have, would be nice.
Feel free to private message or email me (info@vivabaja.com) if you have any of these maps and would be willing to loan them so I can scan and return, or you scan them, or send them to me (maybe for an exchange or discount on one of my Baja books at www.old missions.com?). Thank you!

Once all the auto club maps are online, we can have fun seeing what was changed from year to year... either to show actaul changes found or to fix mistakes... all maps have errors, sometimes they are intentional to prove copyright violations.

And also if anyone has the folded map made by Esparza Editores (a successor of HFET, S.A. de C.V.) published in 2001 (the first edition) please share it

This is the cover
