From jurisdictional confusion to political theater, it breaks down why this matters—and how our response is a historically accurate, bilingual map that tells the full story.

"Never enter the woods without a Purple Lizard Map...not just because you might get lost, but because of all the cool things you would otherwise miss!"

What Lizard Customers Say:
"I must say, as a map lover and collector this is by far the nicest map I have ever held in my hands in my entire life. I can tell a ton of time and effort went into producing this map and it really shows."

What Lizard Customers Say:
"When I first started hiking I used AllTrails and Guthook for everything. Well, let me just say going on adventures with a paper map is about a million times more fun and a way more Immersive experience. I can't recommend @purplelizardmaps enough. These maps are incredible and I wish there was one for every place I explore."
