Being used to European style ski maps, I don’t really understand why you would paint a ski map. A ski map is a map and should convey all the information you need without being overwhelming. I don’t get it why it would show different trees or why the colors need to be natural. A map is a man made thing, nature is outdoors. There is no need to reflect it on the mapy

I appreciate the artwork though.



Context for european style ski maps?


I have no idea what the parent commenter means, but the painted style is common here too (on web, paper, physical signs, …). For example:
