How it works

Reading the scale: at 1:63,360, 1 in on the map equals 1 mile on the ground, which fits a large area on one sheet with less fine detail.

UTM grid: the grid lines let you read a coordinate off the paper map and match it to a GPS unit or phone set to UTM, or plot a GPS position back onto the map.
