Help ID this Baja Map Please


Friend of mine took a cell phone photo of what he says was a very large map of Baja. I would like to find the print version but have had no luck online, does anyone recognize the map below? If so what is the publisher name and/or where can I get a copy.

Gracias in advanced!

i have seen them for sale in Ensenada, San Felipe, and other gift stores in Baja. I hope someone can ID the publisher for you, I resisted buying it (downsizing is no fun)!

Wow you guys are quick, thanks for the info. Looks like www.elimaps.com is not a working site but at least I know where to start looking. Will keep you posted if I find any more info online.

Inferior to what? I have Baja Almanac, E32 on my GPS, a few AAA maps, all are helpful in different ways. I am looking for this particular map because I like the size/format/style. I can not find a single bit about it online however so guess I am going to have to wait until I get back down there and check a few gas stations.

In no way does that say the map is inferior... again, what are you drinking tonight Ralph? Downsizing because our thriving economy is being destroyed by anti-business and pro-government powers. :wow:
