Topo Maps

[Munner]

Does anyone know if it is possible to order the maps used in the CF? For example our regiment trains in the same area quite often and maps are sometimes scarce. It would be nice to have my own personal map which I could map tac etc.

Does anyone know if this is possible?

You can purchase MGRS maps at a few sites on the net.  They usually cost $9.00 or so.  I would recommend just waiting until you get one issued, map tack it well and don't lose it.

Here's a few of the sites:

If its one training area that you are using constantly, contact range control and they should be able to provide you with a map free of charge.

Your local map store or hunting/camping outfitter will have topo maps available for your area. I don't know of very many range controls that provide free maps unless you know somebody there. It would come out of their own operating budjet.

Department of Natuaral Resources in New Brunswick also have topo maps you can purchase from them.  Other provinces would have the same  I would think.  Some of the ones I got from them had grid, others lat/long.
