[1]For the benefit of visitors from countries using the metric system,
the following conversion factors may be helpful: 1 square mile =
2.590 square kilometers, 1 acre = 0.4047 hectare, 1 inch = 2.54
centimeters, 1 foot = 0.305 meter, 1 mile = 1.609 kilometers, 1 U.S.

[2]These plastic relief maps, made by the U.S. Army Map Service, can be
obtained from the T.N. Hubbard Scientific Co., Box 105, Northbrook,
Ill. 60062. Topographic maps at scales of 1:250,000 and 1:62,500 for
the entire area, topographic maps at a scale of 1:24,000 for much of
the area, and a special topographic map of “Canyonlands National
Park and Vicinity” at a scale of 1:62,500 are available from the
U.S. Geological Survey, Denver Distribution Section, Federal Center,
Denver, Colo. 80225, and from privately owned shops where maps are
sold. A revised edition of the latter, including relief shading,
will soon be available. An index map of Utah showing all available
topographic maps is free upon request to the above address.
