Dudh Kosi region at 1:50, 000 in a series of detailed topographic maps of selected trekking areas of Nepal originally prepared by E. Schneider & now edited by the German Scientific Association of Comparative High-Mountain Research (Arbeitsgemeinschaft für vergleichende Hochgebirgsforschung). The map covers the lower Dudh Kosi River, the downstream end of the Hinku River, & the Rawa River. Traditionally referred to as “the Schneider maps”, titles in this series cover Nepal’s most popular trekking regions at 1:50, 000 or 1:100, 000. The maps were originally prepared by the Austrian climber & cartographer Erwin Schneider & for nearly five decades provided the best & often the only coverage of these areas. Now sponsored by the German Scientific Association of Comparative High-Mountain Research (Arbeitsgemeinschaft für vergleichende Hochgebirgsforschung), the maps are still"ed in most trekking guides to Nepal. Most maps have contours at 40-m intervals &, with bold relief shading & colouring for the glaciers, provide a vivid representation of the terrain. Margin ticks & crosshairs give UTM coordinates plus latitude & longitude. Map legend is in English. As the series is currently being revised to include more trekking information, please see the individual descriptions for more details.
