Map Review: Singapore Popout Map, ****

This is a great little map to carry around as you explore Singapore. It is several maps in one in fact, as you get a larger scale "Central" map and two smaller scale maps for City Centre and Orchard Road. It is sturdy enough that it will take some abuse and weighs next to nothing. A map of the metro system is in the back cover, very useful to find your way in the superefficient MRT. And finally one small map of all of Singapore and one of Sentosa island complete the picture.

I did not give it five stars because the index in the back of the two main maps is difficult to read/access.

Map Review: Indian Himalaya Maps, sheet 6, by Leomann maps, *****

Review
This is probably the best set available for this part of the Himalaya. Not so much for trekking but good for trip planning. Sturdy paper and all the names of towns, gonpas, topography.

Would have been useful to have driving distances in km, but in this area kilometers don't mean much: mudslides and floods slow you down so much that time and distance don't always relate to each other! 1:200.000 scale should satisfy most travelers.
