> 9 - Waterproof maps are always available for every chart except the one you need. National Geographic sells waterproof paper for inkjet printers, which allows you to print your own waterproof maps, assuming you have the software and file you need (NGS sells the TOPO! line of mapping software). I haven't tried the stuff yet, but I bought a couple boxes at R.E.I.'s recent sale, and intend to try it sometime in the next few weeks. I've seen a demo map printed on the paper rolled up in a Nalgene bottle full of water, and the colors were still bright; however, I have no idea how scratch-resistant it is. The only size I've seen is 8-1/2" by 11".
