 OK but need a smaller-scale map for navigating August 1, 2008
We're using this map now to plan a Patagonia trip next year. I wish I had 1:24000 scale maps to supplement this overview. A 1:80K map with 100 meter contours leaves a lot to the imagination. However it is very helpful supplenet to a good guidebook like the Lonely Planet Patagonian Andes book.
 Great map February 3, 2008
Used this on our trek to Torres del Paine.It was our favorite map- we had to others- but this one is the best!

This was the best of the maps for the Parque Nacional that I saw while there. Good detail of the terrain, but would have liked more consistent information on trail distances in km. Distances are recorded in hours it takes to hike each segment, which is a standard that the other maps of the park use. However, the times given were a good estimate of the time it takes to hike each part of the trail. What isn't clear from any of the maps is the difficulty or rough conditions of many of the trails. In general, trekking in the park is moderately challenging, but the condition of many of the trails (rocky, steep, and/or highly eroded in places) makes it more so.

This is just what I needed. The paths are clearly marked as are the camp sites and contour lines. Some of the print is very small and sometimes blends in too much with the background colour, but you will be able to work it out. All walks are also given an approximate walking time which really helps give an idea of the terrain before you go there.
