About the map
The labyrinthine waterways of southern Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego are difficult to comprehend. Having visited the region three times, I made this map to better see the places where I have been—and where I have yet to go.
This map is a departure from my normal work. It shows a vast area in a 3D perspective view complete with a curved horizon and a sprinkling of stars above. I chose this design to emphasize the extreme remoteness from the rest of our teeming world. The motto "Fin del Mundo" says it all.
I hope that you will find this map informative and useful.
