Back covers of two Sunoco-DX gas station maps from the early 1970s. Sunoco took over DX in 1968 and would gradually phase the brand out of existence.
I've accounts of almost a early dozen Waialeale ascents and will use them to show how the Waialeale Trail has evolved since the nineteen century.
But as shown in the old maps, little was known of the interior. If you've hiked some of the trails south of Koaie Gorge, you'll appreciate how rarely you can see even fifty feet, much less see enough to get an idea of the lay of the land.
The early maps show little detail of the interior of the island, mostly speculation. For example, this one doesn't show Koaie Stream and the Makaweli drainage is quite small. Nothing at Kawaikini, the highest point on the island. It does show a route approximating the Alakai Swamp Trail, then dropping into Wainiha Valley. Detail along the coast line is fairly accurate.
Sikkim,also known as Shikim or Su Khyim,is a landlocked Indian state located in the Himalayan mountains.Sikkim is the least populous state in India and the second-smallest state after Goa.
It also has the only open land border between India and China. Sikkim's capital and largest city is Gangtok.
The USGS GNIS placename database was used to make this map. Place names that end in "Hollow" are shown with an orange got, while those ending in "Gulch" get a blue dot.
Clearly, "Gulch" is common in the West and rare in the East. "Hollow", on the other hand, is very common in the Appalachians, Ozarks, Texas, and elsewhere in the East, but is also found in a few western regions—notably Utah and north-central Oregon.

* Em yêu . . .
Em yêu vẻ đẹp trong mắt anh
Em yêu cách anh làm em cười
Em yêu anh lúc anh quan tâm - lo lắng cho em
Em yêu cả cách nói đáng yêu và hài hước của anh
Em yêu giọng nói nhẹ nhàng ấm áp mỗi khi anh thì thầm vào tai em
Em yêu một sự thật rằng em cũng sẽ không bao giờ quên được anh : )

When U.S. Army troops under General Sherman occupied Savannah in December, 1864 the officers drew several maps of the city on the walls of their barracks. They were drawn with pencils. The barracks is now a restaurant and this is the only one of those maps that survives.

I found this map tucked away in my desk at work. It has been there for years. I have no memory of where, what or why, but it's always fun to find a mysterious map.

One note added to the map.
This web site documents the access sites on the Wabash River from Huntington, Indiana to the confluence with the Ohio River. It includes pictures and descriptions of the access sites and their amenities.
We personally visited the access sites. The first half of the river (from Huntington to Tecumseh) was done by boat. We then drove to the access sites on the second half of the river (from Terre Haute to the confluence with the Ohio).
ABOUT THE WABASH RIVER
The Wabash has always been Indiana's most famous river. Occupying the heartland of the state, the river drains two-thirds of the 92 counties (over 33,000 square miles) as it flows over 475 miles to its confluence with the Ohio below Mount Vernon. The river rises in Ohio near Fort Recovery and flows for only thirty miles before it becomes entirely an Indiana River. In addition to being Indiana's official state river, the Wabash is also the longest free-flowing river east of the Mississippi.
It is a river of many faces and moods. At times it occupies a huge valley which was carved by a glacial runoff but it also flows through a partially filled valley formed before the glacial advances. In its upper stretches the Wabash moves across the fertile, flat land in a narrow, shallow trench.
A trip down any other river in the state will not give as complete a view of Indiana as the Wabash. You will not experience a pristine natural environment (except in isolated sections) but you will see Indiana today and a glimpse of the past. The river is usually muddy and slow moving as it drains much of Indiana's fertile farmland. This factor alone should not deter you from trying the Wabash. The upper end of the Wabash is very shallow with numerous log jams clogging the river and making navigation of the river tiring in all but high water (and then it may be dangerous).

Not much changed here in some ways, except for the major reconstructions in the square bounded by Petty Cury, Corn Exchange Street, St Andrews Street and Downing Street to make way for Lion Yard and the Grand Arcade.
Note also the car park denoted on New Square and the vanished lanes to the north of Fitzroy Street.

Planning map for BART lines and stations.
In this version, the Peninsula would have been reached by Bayshore, and BART would have run to Daly City through the Twin Peaks Tunnel and a new parallel tunnel.
After five years of planning, the Runcorn Busway shown in orange was purpose built in 1971 as part of the development of Runcorn new town. It was completed in 1978. The new town stands up the hill on the south bank of the Mersey overlooking Runcorn old town, with its distinctive road and rail bridges across to Widnes on the north bank. The busway was built to a figure of eight design, enabling all residents to be within walking distance of the bus. This public transport concept has broken down over the years as Runcorn has expanded beyond its original design and car ownership has become more common.
In the centre at Halton Lea, formerly Shopping City, the bus way straddles the first phase of the shopping centre with separate high-level north and southbound platforms. Initially there was a lower regional bus station closed some years ago in favour of car parking. Longer distance services now also use the upper levels. Buses from outside the system can enter the busway and access the shopping centre. Services operate to Chester, Warrington and Liverpool from Halton Lea. A striking feature is the elevated section through Halton Lea where in a manner later replicated by the Docklands Light Railway in London the busway runs along a dedicated viaduct. Unlike later examples in Cambridge and Leigh, the system is unguided – the drivers still steer their buses. The busway is single lane but each stop has a passing lane to allow following buses to pass.
In parallel with Runcorn’s core Expressway dual carriageway network, The Busway was an integral part of the planning of one of Liverpool’s overspill new towns, to the east of established Runcorn. With bus stops in residential areas sited to maximise convenience compared to car use and parking, the bus was designed to be the mode of choice.
Maximum Busway driving speeds were designed for 40 mph, with priority signals where Busway intersected the local road network. Average bus operating speeds were said to be 50 per cent higher than on conventional roads. Core Busway services are operated by Crosville's successor Arriva North West’s circulars 1 and 2, each operating every five to seven minutes, One interesting feature of the Busway is that Saint Chadd’s, a large regional secondary school has its own dedicated bus bays.
Services on the northern leg of Busway (Astmoor) are now provided solely by longer distance services.
The Busway has seen its share of problems over the years. A small number of double decks have bashed bridges along the single deck only Busway. There have been a small number of crashes, including with private vehicles not supposed to be on Busway. By far the worst issue is anti-social behaviour after dark on an otherwise relatively isolated network seeing few evening services.
