THE LIVING MAP

The mapped place

Sugarbush is recorded at 44.140° N, 72.896° W. Its catalogue reference reaches 1,244 metres. A modern resort map compresses terrain, exposure and access into a diagram. This exhibition keeps the underlying contour visible so the place does not become only a list of facilities.
