The price of maps for the Mount Baker Snoqualmie National Forest will increase in 2018 from $10 to $14.

The increase will take effect Jan. 1 for paper and plastic coated maps for Mount Baker Snoqualmie and all other national forests, according to a news release.

The increase in price is due to increasing costs of production, printing and distribution, according to the release.

Maps are available for purchase at forest visitor centers and ranger stations, online at NationalForestStore.com and by phone at 406-329-3024.
