Hi all,

We are getting a fair number of requests from students who are trying to find
simple maps they can manipulate to put into a report or thesis.  They don't
need something as sophisticated as a GIS, but would like something above a
digital atlas like Microsoft Encarta.

We are looking into buying the Mountain High Maps program.  That needs to be
used in conjunction with something like PhotoShop, which may be a barrier to
those who don't know or have access to the program.  Has anyone used Mountain
High Maps?  Has it been useful?  Any other ideas for us?

Thanks very much,

Julie
