====Challenger Relief Map of British Columbia==== The Challenger Relief Map of [[British Columbia]] is a hand-built topographic map of the province, 80 feet by 76 feet. Built by George Challenger and his family from 1947 to 1954, it features all of B.C.'s mountains, lakes, rivers and valleys in exact-scaled topographical detail. Residing in the British Columbia Pavilion at the [[Pacific National Exhibition]] (PNE) in Vancouver from 1954 to 1997 it was viewed by millions of visitors. The [[Guinness World Records|Guinness Book of Records]] cites the Challenger Map as the largest of its kind in the world. The map in its entirety occupies 6,080 square feet (1,850 square metres) of space. It was disassembled in 1997; there is a project to restore it in a new location.<ref>[https://challengermap.ca/ The Challenger Relief Map of British Columbia].</ref>
