The collection of maps presented here are those shown in the Final Draft Dehcho Land Use Plan and Background Report as it was publicly released and submitted to the Government of the Northwest Territories and the Government of Canada for approval and favourable consideration in June 2006.

Viewing and Download Instructions

Maps are available for viewing and download in either JPG or PDF format.  Click on the small thumbnail image to view a larger map in JPG format and then right-click the large image to save the JPG format map to your local drive. 

For high quality printing, the maps are also available in PDF format files. Please note, however, that some of the PDF format maps are quite large in file size and dial-up internet users are cautioned that download time may be significant. To download a map in PDF format, right-click the PDF format link below the small thumbnail image. In order view the maps in PDF format you will need to have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed on your computer. Most maps are formatted to be printed in colour on 8.5” by 11” paper. While it is possible to enlarge, or shrink, the maps in order to print on different sizes of paper, this will change the scale of the map and may render some of the mapped features unreadable.
