Howdy all
In the event of perhaps a silly question, I was curious what you mark any of your paper maps with and also how do you store them ?
Why I ask is I am slowly acquiring a range of paper maps both Topo and Geo that I have for reference and general information. I do find that all of the map makers seem to use different size folding patterns so to keep them in something neat is getting impossible. Any ideas or photos of how you keep your maps would be great.
The second part is writing on the maps, I would assume you use a pencil, but is there a better type to use than others. Perhaps softer and thicker opposed to pointy. Do you use a different colour and do you mark anything of interest on them as well.
Seeing everything seems to be digital these days I am keen to keep old records and information for future reference etc... Any tips appreciated.
