Southern California – 3D Earth Image Map

Scale: 1:500,000 (1" = 7.89 miles)
Approximate Trim Size, Unframed: 30” x 20”

This wall map shows southern California in stunning 3D detail, as though you were looking down from space on a clear day. The high-resolution satellite image is precisely molded to the 3D terrain shape, showing the beauty of the mountains and deserts. The map covers from Santa Barbara and the coastal mountains to San Diego and the Mexico border, and from the Channel Islands to the San Gabriel and San Bernardino Mountains, as well as the Mojave Desert. Key towns, mountain ranges/peaks, valleys, and deserts are labeled for easy reference. Hikers, backpackers, and all outdoor enthusiasts will value this 3D wall map.

Deciding Between Framed or Unframed

This map is available in two forms: poster-style, convenient for pinning to a wall or bulletin board, or fully framed and ready to be displayed as art.  We carefully trim, mount, and frame each map to ensure a perfect fit in a hand-assembled frame crafted of either solid oak or black anodized aluminum.  

If you intend to showcase the map as decor, we encourage you to order a framed version up front. Our framed map prices are well below those of a typical framing shop, but we’re not able to provide frames separately for maps that have already been shipped.

If you’d rather frame the map yourself, please read our Framing a Summit Map PDF for instructions and important DYI framing tips.
