The Map is now functional. Enjoy!
Version 14.1 is now available. I've added about 100 canyons to the Death Valley area.
The list of new Death Valley canyons is here: http://ropewiki.com/index.php/Scott_...ng_Exploration
I'm going to add some more canyons to The Map next week (Bluu Gnome, New Mexico). If there is anything you feel is missing, let me know. Peakbaggers, I'll post up the stuff you sent me, I haven't forgotten.
Does anyone know the coordinates for the SGR slot in Moab?
SGR is PIR, AIU. TMN, BTB, or GWS who has BTB.
:eek2:
YMMV or IMN.
I found SGR. Thanks for the alphabet soup Rob L, and for offering to help Mr M.
New Mexico is a little weak on this map... but it doesn't need to be... this NMex Slot Canyon Website is brand new and already has 53 entries: http://www.dougscottart.com/hobbies/SlotCanyons.htm ...the snow is slowing us down but we're still exploring weekly and finding new ones....
It's too big for Google Maps? I admit I haven't used the new My Maps in Google Maps very much, but I just tried to import this kml and I'm not sure Google is importing the whole file. Below is a screen grab of the message from Google. How many layers/features does this map have? How do I know I got the whole thing imported?

A couple more screen shots of the map after the message.

Actually, after messing around with it a minute or two I'm pretty certain that it did not import everything. I deselected the out-of-utah layers and started looking around; I don't see North Wash canyons, Swell Canyons, Canyonlands Canyons, Zion Canyons, or Moab Canyons. Another screen shot with all Utah layers selected:

I deleted the map in Google Maps, then re-imported it. Same problem. (Am I doing something wrong?)
Edit: Imported it to the BackCountry Navigator Pro app on my phone. It looks beautiful there. Has 807 waypoints in the app (still not sure how to get Google My Maps to tell me how many waypoints imported).
Edit II: I got the same "That's a big file!" message when I tried to import Shaggy's map.
Edit III: Google My Maps gives the option to import by uploading from the local drive or import from a file in Google Drive. I tried to import from Google Drive and still got the same "That's a big file!" message and incomplete import.
I was afraid of that. Lame that I have plenty of space in Google Drive but can't use the file in Google maps.
Maps works best for playing around with maps at work. ;)

thats a long URL... summit post has some that are missing look under canyons,routes,trailheads from your map also roadtripryan has some ex. Canyoneering Upper Three Fingers Canyon - San Rafael SwellCanyoneering Box Canyon - Maple Canyon
If you would like to add some canyons to the map (and I appreciate the kind folks that do), please do it like this:
1. Levi canyon (GPS coords, Degrees Minutes Seconds)
2. Fackrell canyon (GPS coords)
3. Helmetless canyon (GPS coords)
OR;
Send me a KML map of the canyons that need to be added (with no extra canyons or duplicate canyons please).
That way I don't waste my time or lose any more marbles. :mrgreen:
Thank you.
:cool2: VERSION 15 OF THE MAP IS NOW AVAILABLE :cool2:
Special thanks to @levifackrell and the @peakbaggers for their contributions to this version. :2thumbs:

I've also adjusted how some of the Lake Powell canyons are labeled; closed/restricted status for a few canyons has been updated, some of the larger drainages have been labeled, and several guesses have been removed.
Enjoy!
Thank you again for this!
Thanks for the kind words @DiscGo ! I'm glad that you like it. :mrgreen:
