Zicafoose Single Sheet Zoom to 6400% Map

Postby cavescom » Jan 23, 2007 10:31 pm

I have uploaded a printable single sheet map of Zicafoose Blowhole that can be zoomed to 6400% without loss of detail.
Note: Zoom to 6400% using Acrobat Reader 7 or 8 and 3200% using Acrobat Reader 6.
http://www.caves.com/zicsinglesheet.pdf 4.8 meg file

NOTE: for printing any particular section just zoom in to desired % and then choose "Print" then select "Current View" then select Page Scaling: "fit to printer margins" and it will print that view to the full sheet.

I use Adobe Illustrator CS to draw the map. You can read an article I wrote on some of our processes at http://www.caves.com/techsurvey.pdf

Thanks George....and the length of Zicafoose stands at 3.6 miles i.e. I made it to WV last weekend but during the drive I developed a sore throat and by Sat. morning it was full blown cold and I am still recovering.......my wife is pregnant(due in May with a girl) so it makes trips South more spaced out. The next trip is planned in mid March.
