Progress Progress Progress...
I have changed the label of Locks #6 - #10 to the Five Lock Combine and I have increased the size of the parking symobls for greater clairity. Currently, I am working on adding a legend, scale bar, north arrow, ect. A finished product of my maps should be completed by next week along with a draft of my poster presentation.

Update!
A few additions have been added to the map this week. Martindale boat basin has been added as point on the map. Also, a map has been created with parking symbols and another map has been created with boat launch sympbols for canoe and boat launching points along the Feeder Canal. I have attached 4 maps that include a layout with written lables, a layout with numbered lables, a layout that includes paking symbols, and a layout that includes boat launch symbols.
Below is a list of all the points on the map.
- Feeder Dam & Lock #14
- Overlook Park
- Haviland's Cove Park
- Murry Street Docks
- Cooper's Cave
- Finch Pruyn
- Hyde Collection
- Connection to Warren Co. Bike Trail
- Lime Kilns
- Murry Park
- Martindale Boat Basin
- Griffin Coal Silos
- Lock #13
- Locks #11 & #12
- Locks #6-#10
- T-Bridge
- To Energy Park
- To McIntyre Park
What do you think about the parking symbols and boat launch symbols? Do you like their placement? Would you want them both on one map?

Map - Draft #1
I have completed a map of the Feeder Canal path with many of the important points along the path. Most of the path is in blue. However, I have made the detour for the area around Finch Pruyn in orange. Also, I am not exactly sure where the path ends. There are still a few stops to be added which include the silo's, Energy Park, and McIntyre Park. I have included two maps above, one with labels and one with numbers. I feel as if the labels can overcrowd the map and may better be included as a number. Much editing, including movement, coloring and size of labels still needs to be completed.
