BOF Annual Mapping Awards 2025: Walsh Trophy Winner – Alasdair Pedley (AROS)

The map mostly covers the old town with its many narrow alleys leading uphill from the harbour.

The judges felt that the overall cartography was excellent with good spacing between objects, exaggerated where necessary, making valid routes clear and unambiguous. Wall dots and fence tags, when used, were placed to avoid obscuring important detail and contours / north lines were cut appropriately. The overall map layout was simple and not distracting in any way.

Congratulations to Alasdair on his award!

That concludes our series of BOF Annual Award Winners 2025. Well done to all our winners!
