Canoe map of grass river

For an upcoming canoe trip on the Grass River (northern Manitoba), I've prepared a map for each of the canoes in our group.

The map shows the section of river we'll be travelling (Wekusko Lake to Wabowden), and includes all of the portages and rapids. This information is readily available from a number of sources, such as Réal Bérard's "Grass River Canoe Route" map (available from Manitoba Department of Natural Resources), as well as Hap Wilson and Stephanie Aykroyd's "Wilderness Rivers of Manitoba", however for the trip it will be helpful to have all relevant details on one map, and for each canoe to have a copy.

I got the topographic maps from Toporama, and as far as I understand the license, I'm allowed to create and distribute derivative works (thanks, Queen!), so I'm making it available here in case others want to use it.

Jason, these maps are fantastic. I like the way you've melded the Berard map with the topo map. That will be very helpful as we look for places to camp, portage, etc. Thanks.
