We think this comment about says it all...
"Thanks for your map, Aaron, which I’ve been studying over the weekend and enjoyed very much. The contoured base map is beautiful and I like the way I can superimpose my own tracks on top – really great. I’m impressed with the map, and will be mentioning it in the next edition of the book, as well as online."
Henry Stedman is the author of Kilimanjaro: A Trekking Guide to Africa's Highest Mountain and the creator of ClimbMountKilimanjaro.com. Coming from an expert Kilimanjaro guide, we think that kind of praise for our map says a lot!
Now, on to the details...
This topographic map of Kilimanjaro available for your GPS offers you greatly improved detail for your climb. The contours are spaced 20 meters apart for the entire mountain, allowing you to view the terrain while making your way to the summit.
In addition to the contours of the mountain, other geographic features are included in the map. Park boundaries for Kilimanjaro and Urusha National Parks, hiking routes to the summit, national and local roads, rivers and streams, lakes and wetlands, airports, campsites, and many more. This map is continually being upgraded to provide the best GPS map for the area.
Compare the basic Mapsource map included with your GPS with ours. The difference speaks for itself!
Below are some images of our map's features viewed in Mapsource. The first image in the series is of the Garmin map. The other images are of the GPS Travel Maps map, with extensive detail and features. Have a look, and click on each image for a larger view!

Here are a few notes from people that have used our maps.
I purchased your Kilimanjaro Topographic Map earlier this year, and it is fantastic!
Maps look great. As you say, it’s a big improvement to base maps.
purchased the Kilimanjaro topo map prior to my climb and used it on the climb. I was able to follow the elevation gains as well as where I was in relation to camps along the route.
Was a great service and very easy to install. Happy all round!
