A handmade aesthetic for this map emphasizes the rustic nature of the canoe trip. Along the journey, the map author reveals clues to Algonquin Park’s history, including logging artifacts. We get a sense of exploring a new frontier despite being inside a popular, provincial park. The map author uses a stippling symbol effect to soften the hard edges of features. We love how this technique, along with the custom cartouche, reinforces a hand-inked appearance. A graphically rendered trip log highlights strenuous stretches and places where the travelers needed to portage.
