Any requests for close ups of an area or place on any of these or other old maps that I have?
Scroll down this forum to see many other maps posted by me over the years on Nomad...
I am happy to share what I have collected with fellow Baja enthusiasts!

David, the earlier maps were made by rustic first generation satellites made of mud, sticks and feathers.
The later ones of wood with glass telescopes show the glaring difference in technoligy but still lack modern detail.
I find it interesting that very early cartographers used the names of their families, farm animals and pets for landmarks, rivers, estuaries, etc.
Not one mention about the first guy, Jemenez. Must have been a bad dude or somebody took him off the board before we got to appreciate what he did.
