Book Synopsis: A beautiful map of this U.S. island territory in Micronesia. Features durable lamination with edge seal. 18.5" x 26". Ships rolled.

Side One: The entire island is shown in fabulous chartreuse shaded relief so the viewer can see the island topography as it stands out like a beautiful emerald on descending hues of ocean blues, which represent the true depth contours of the surrounding North Pacific Ocean. Every hill and valley and the streams that flow out of the mountains to become Guam's numerous rivers can be visualized clearly. Guam's highways and towns are all superbly mapped out for finding your way around this island, which is just over 30 miles in length and varies from about 4 to 9 miles across, depending on where you measure it.

Wonpat International Airport area), Chalan Pago, Mangilao (University of Guam site), Yona, Talofofo, Inarajan, Merizo, Umatac, Agat, and Santa Rita. Guam rivers, streams, bodies of water, and waterfalls are shown in accurate detail. Favorite spots to visit are also shown with detailed descriptions. Dive and snorkel sites are named and described. Guam's classy golf courses are on the map. The Blue Hole, Guam's number one scuba dive site, is shown, as is Talofofo Falls and Fu a Rock and Umatac Bay.
