Critical Data for Remote Survival

Unlike standard maps, this customized guide is built for the specific challenges of the Tatchu Trail, where there are no formal paths—only the wild shoreline. This map provides the "ground-truth" data you need:

• Navigate the Tides: Features clearly marked tide cutoffs, allowing you to time your passage safely around the technical surge channels and rocky shelves of Sandstone Point and Jurassic Point.

• Trusted Campsites & Water: Identifies established recommended campsites and reliable drinking water sources, essential for planning your 4-to-6 day trek.

• Pro-Level Navigation: Includes three-dimensional shaded relief, 1 km UTM grid lines, and precise Latitude/Longitude coordinates for seamless GPS integration.

• Tougher Than the Elements: Printed on high-quality water-resistant and tearproof synthetic stock, this map is designed to endure the salt spray, rain, and bushwhacking of the Pacific coast.

Precision Engineering & Coverage

Seamlessly merging parts of NTS blocks 92E/14 and 92E/15, this map ensures you have a continuous view of the entire 32–35 km route. With accurate distances and estimated hiking times, you can navigate the "dinosaur's playground" of rock formations and expansive sea-otter habitats with total confidence.
