Description: Includes an excellent trip planning map for Australia’s Northern Territory, the remote, sparsely populated region in the north-central part of the continental-sized country, stretching from the lush, tropical northern coast (centered around Darwin) to the arid desert mountains in the center (centered around Alice Springs). It is a vast (520,000 square miles) mostly empty land (only 250,000 residents, with a population density of less than 0.5 people per square mile), home to spectacular natural and manmade features like Ayers Rock/Uluru, Palm Valley Oasis, Kings Canyon, Kakadu National Park (an area the size of Wales, encompassing a varied tropical ecosystem) and the aboriginal rock and cave art of Judbarra/Gregory National Park. The area is so out of the way that most tourists are of the outdoor adventure variety. The two-sided trip planning map (from Lonely Planet, 2019) is waterproof and comes in its own glossy cardboard case, featuring a topographical map on one side, tracing a route from Darwin (“The Top End”), all the way down to Uluru/Ayers Rock (“The Red Centre”) on one side, along with a map featuring the territory’s numerous national parks on the other side; and an official foldout map & brochure for Kakadu National Park, which covers a large area 40 miles east of Darwin, featuring sandstone cliffs, tropical rivers and jungles and 40,000-year old Aboriginal rock art (from the Australian National Parks and Wildlife Service, 1986); and a brochure featuring the Birds of Kakadu National Park (from the Australian National Park and Wildlife Service, circa 1980).
