Just to refine: in October 2007, the map displayed here was enlarged on the southern edge by Zdeněk Sokolář, Jan Drbal (me) and Roman Horký - a new member of the team. Now there are some pics from the mapping and samples of my part of the map and basemaps at http://www.holidaymappers.eu/en/index.php?page=plitvice. And here http://www.holidaymappers.eu/en/index.php?page=plitvicejezera is our small map with some of the Plitvice lakes.

I spent one week in 1987 helping to finish the first version of the map. A really magnificent area! If I remember correcly is was not as straight forward as it is today to let two foreigners handle a detailed map (it was still Jugoslavia in those days). Anyone who have a copy of the first version of the map? If it ever got printed... Nice to see the Plitvica map in print! I spent one week in 1987 helping to finish the first version of the map.

I’m not sure about the coordinates on the map, because I couldn’t really locate it on google earth, but it might also be that the program isn’t 100% accurate.

the fact that it’s the southernmost map is maybe more exciting than the map itself, but I thought it fits into the context ;)

Anyway, we plan to make a Google Earth compatible view of the presented maps in due time - so you'll get all in one place. Thanks Tibor, but the link does not seem to work?

It looks like a nice map - not sure if it will make it on the list though. I think there are many terrains in Czech Republic / Saxony that are even more interesting regarding the rocky details?
