Before skiers and snowboarders hit the slopes, they need to know what routes to take down a mountain. Parks and resorts rely on ski maps to provide this information to visitors. These maps show a mountain’s topography—the arrangement of an area’s natural features—including slopes, cliffs, and forests. Along with needing to be detailed and accurate, ski maps must look visually appealing to entice people to explore the mountain.

That’s where Rad Smith comes in. He’s an artist and designer specializing in cartography, or mapmaking. He uses geographic data to craft maps that chart ski routes while also highlighting mountains’ breathtaking terrain and surrounding landscapes. Science World spoke with Smith to find out how he creates informative and beautiful maps. How did you become interested in maps and mapmaking?
I’ve been interested in the natural world my whole life. As a kid growing up in North Carolina and Georgia, I spent a lot of time outdoors. I was also a big collector of maps. Every time I got an issue of National Geographic magazine, the first thing I would do was flip through it to find the maps. When I grew up, I decided to pursue a degree in fine art. I studied painting, drawing, and sculpting. Along with giving me valuable technical skills, my education also taught me to observe things more closely.

ROUGH DRAFT: Smith works on a pencil sketch of a map.

After I graduated, I worked in graphic design. Graphic designers use visuals to communicate messages or ideas. That could include creating a logo for a company or making technical diagrams for a scientific publication. At one point, I was creating designs for ski clothing. That reminded me of my interest in the outdoors. Soon after, I made my first location maps for an outdoor magazine using watercolor paints. I loved it! Then I got a job at an environmental consulting firm and spent 20 years making maps for experts like biologists and historians. Now, I make mostly ski maps.

FLYOVER: Smith finds it helpful to view an area’s features from an aircraft. How do you make your maps? It begins with a lot of conversation. I like to speak with a person who knows the area well. For a ski area, that might be a site manager or ski patroller. We talk about what parts of the landscape need emphasis. I usually visit the property and get an aerial view, either from an airplane or with a drone. If it’s a ski map, I like to ski all over
Next, I gather technical information, like satellite images and topographic data—or elevation measurements—that tells me the exact size of every feature on the mountain.
Then I create a basic line drawing. I ask myself: Are the right features being highlighted? Is it a believable scene? I show my initial drawing to the client to see if they are happy with the direction. Then I create a more detailed pencil sketch. Once that’s approved, I bring it to life with watercolors. I paint buildings, trees, and valleys. From start to finish, a map can take two to three months. TOURIST ATTRACTION: Smith drew this map, which shows Big White Ski Resort in Canada. If you could make a map of any place, where would it be? I’ve never mapped anything underwater. That’s a special type of mapmaking called bathymetric mapping. I would love to map the terrain of the ocean floor. So far, only about 20 percent of the ocean floor has been accurately mapped—that means we know more about the surface of the moon than we do about the seafloor! One thing I love about maps is that they can take anybody anywhere without them having to go to that place. So I think mapping somewhere that most people never get to see would be really exciting.

JOB PROFILE: MAPMAKER
Median Salary: $69,000
Educational Requirements: Mapmaking often requires a college-level understanding of geography or geographic information systems (GIS)—computer software that captures and displays visual data about the Earth’s surface. Courses in visual design, drawing, and painting are also useful. Gearing Up: Build a portfolio of your own by creating maps of places that interest you. You can draw maps by hand or using computer software.

GINNY THE DOG: A HERO AMONG HEROS

Heroes come in many shapes and forms, but they all do uncommon things in unusual situations. They stand out. We've all heard stories of hero dogs that save their owners. One dog saved his owner by fighting off an alligator. Another woke his sleeping family when a fire broke out in its home. Still others rescue injured or needy people in dangerous situations. One dog even managed to call 911 when his owner suffered a seizure. But one dog, named Ginny, performed heroic acts on a regular basis, not just once or twice in unusual situations. Because of her kindness, many lives were saved.

Ginny the dog was adopted by her owner from an animal shelter in 1990. Within days of bringing her home, her owner discovered that Ginny seemed to be able to find cats in distress. On her daily walks, Ginny would often find abandoned, trapped, or endangered kittens or cats that needed rescuing. In one such episode, Ginny found a group of kittens trapped in a pipe. She managed to let her owner know, by scratching and barking at the pipe, that something needed her help. Because of Ginny, all the kittens were saved.

Almost daily, Ginny would find cats that needed rescuing or, in some cases, a little love. Ginny's owner reported that when Ginny saw a cat on their walks, she would pull away from her leash and run after the cat. Instead of chasing cats like most dogs, Ginny would nuzzle and lick them, giving them comfort. Because of Ginny, her owner soon found he was caring for hundreds of wild neighborhood cats. In addition, Ginny pushed her owner to adopt more than 20 cats, most of whom had permanent injuries or special needs.

"When we would go to the pound to drop off donations," her owner said, "Ginny always found the cat that was blind or deaf or hurt in some way. She would sit down in front of the cat's crate and not move until we brought it home."

What makes a dog behave in such a kind way? Some believe Ginny had a very strong mothering instinct. But how could she tell when a cat was deaf? How did she know which cats needed love and attention? Regardless of how she did it, Ginny rescued hundreds of cats in her life and set an example we all can follow.

"Heroes come in many shapes and forms, but they all do uncommon things in unusual situations."

What makes Ginny an uncommon hero? Use details and examples from the essay to support your answer.

write a hook for persuasive essay. the issue: is the outsiders relevant today?

Which theme does this passage from The Hobbit develop?
The dwarves indeed no longer needed any urging. All were now eager to explore the hall while they had the
chance, and willing to believe that, for the present, Smaug was away from home. Each now gripped a lighted torch;
and as they gazed, first on one side and then on another, they forgot fear and even caution. They spoke aloud, and
cried out to one another, as they lifted old treasures from the mound or from the wall and held them in the light
caressing and fingering them.
O Good always overcomes evil.
Seemingly ordinary individuals can do extraordinary things.

And now at length I rise! I wake!
And stride into the morning break!

Read the excerpt from Votes for Women:


At the Seneca Falls Convention in July 1848, women like Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth Cady Stanton signed the Declaration of Sentiments, a document expressing their concerns about the role of women in the United States. For example, at the time married women could not own property, and the education and employment of women was limited. These women decided that to change the law, women needed to be able to vote. Some thought that peaceful methods were the best way for the Women's Suffrage Movement to obtain its goal, while others believed that a more aggressive strategy was necessary.


The peaceful approach in the Women's Suffrage Movement changed the United States over time. At first, there was resistance to the idea of women having the vote. Many believed that the practice of politics was masculine and men should vote on behalf of their wives and daughters. When African American men were granted the right to vote in the 15th Amendment, women of any race were not included. This decision discouraged many women, but they still organized themselves into groups, like the National American Woman Suffrage Association, in order to campaign for the vote. They argued that voting women would benefit society, and published newspaper articles and other literature about women's rights. From 1878 until 1920, the idea of women's suffrage was brought before Congress every year. In the meantime, women also campaigned for the vote in different states. During World War I, many women did jobs regularly done by men. Their contributions to the United States and the influence of Carrie Chapman Catt caused President Woodrow Wilson to finally support women's suffrage. The peaceful approach changed opinions over time and ultimately led to the 19th Amendment.
