This raised relief wall map shows the Colorado Rocky Mountains in 3D detail, as though you're looking down from space on a clear day. The high-resolution satellite image is draped over the precisely molded 3D terrain shape, showing the beauty of the mountains, canyons, and valleys. The map covers from Denver and Colorado Springs west to beyond Aspen and Cardiff, and from Steamboat Springs down to the Sangre de Christo Range. Key towns, mountain ranges/peaks, the 14,000' peaks, most of the Colorado Trail and the Continental Divide Trail, roads and forests are marked and labeled for easy reference. Hikers, backpackers, climbers, and other Colorado outdoor enthusiasts will value this amazing 3D wall map. These 3D Earth Image maps are available as unframed or framed (black aluminum, light or dark stained solid oak wood, or black painted wood).

How are these three dimensional raised relief maps made?

Each raised relief map starts as a map printed on a flat study sheet of vinyl. It is carefully registered over a 3D model that is made from USGS digital elevation model data. The vinyl is heated to make it pliable and a vacuum is created to form the map over the model. Take a look at the process below.

 

Framing options

This large map is available in three formats: fully framed and ready to hang in a black anodized aluminum frame; mounted on foam-board and ready for you to frame yourself; or unframed, perfect for pinning to a bulletin board.

Please note: If you plan to order a frame-ready map, we recommend you order the frame after you receive the map. This will allow you to choose the frame depth and dimensions that will work best
