Short ascents are marked with red lines. The Freeride Maps are based on topographic maps 1:25, 000. They contain all essential information about the terrain that is necessary for planning & going freeriding. The maps are printed on water resistant & indestructible paper. On the back side, the maps include all relevant planning, safety & rescue information. ...
