Looking for unmarked trails across the Canadian border? Need to find the nearest bathroom in a hurry? Ever wonder where Djibouti is? Well, if you've ever needed a map, then the place you should consult is your local map collection.

The University of Washington in Seattle is home to the largest collection of cartographic materials in the Northwest. All the way from Oregon to Alaska, and from Montana to... um, Alaska... They've got it all here--street maps, soil surveys, aerial photography--why, they even have orthorectified digital imagery mosaics. Heh, heh, yes sir, YOUR MAP COLLECTION truly is "A World of Maps... of the World."
