Out fishing with Annie on his lap, a cigar in one hand and a ginger ale in the other, watching the sunset.

Especially if you create your own tour routes and maps. It seems that National Geographic distributes map paper for your printer. It's waterproof and foldable and available in standard printer sizes. A bit pricey, but hey, it's still a pretty cool product! I found it at Sportsmans' Warehouse, by the way!

Thanks for the tip. I've not seen a Sportsman's Warehouse. Where are you located?

Lafayette, Indiana. I suspect you can get it many other places. It's usually around the Natl Geo's software and can likely find it on line as well.

Yep, I found a link!

Is it basically Rite-In-The-Rain paper?

(I guess weather-stable ink is the next quest...)

Not necessary for weather stable ink, it uses standard printer ink, and impregnates like a dye process as I understand it....
