Street Map of Cotacachi

We write so much about Cotacachi, it occurred to me that posting a street map of Cotacachi would be a good idea. So I looked on the internet and couldn’t really see a good one. The answer was to print of pieces of an existing map, copy them while reducing their size. Cut the pieces [...]
