A chain of peaks runs along the centre of the island, so the land drops away steeply on both sides toward the Pacific and the Sea of Okhotsk.

About this Urup map poster
Urup is one of the larger islands of the Kuril chain, the arc of volcanic islands that runs from Hokkaido to Kamchatka. It lies northeast of Iturup, separated from it by the Vries Strait. Today it is administered by Russia and has no permanent population, which makes it one of the emptier places in an already sparsely settled region.
The island is long and slender, running from southwest to northeast, with a mountainous spine of volcanoes along its length. One side faces the open Pacific and the other the Sea of Okhotsk. Both coasts are steep, broken by small bays and river mouths. An Urup map poster is shaped almost entirely by that stretched, ridged form.
Like much of the Kurils, Urup has a layered past of Ainu, Russian and Japanese presence. Over the centuries, hunters and traders came here, drawn partly by sea otters and fur seals. With no real road network, the map is left to coastline and water: a clean line drawn diagonally across a cold northern sea.

Vries Strait
To the southwest, a strait separates Urup from Iturup, marking the end of the island and the start of the next link in the Kuril chain.
Between two seas
With the Pacific on one side and the Sea of Okhotsk on the other, the narrow outline sits diagonally across open water on the sheet.

Why Urup
A map that means something
Urup is a map for people drawn to remote coasts and island arcs: geographers, sailors, people who have travelled or worked in the Kurils, and collectors of places few will ever visit. Its long diagonal shape makes a bold, simple print.
Add your own title, subtitle and coordinates line, and choose Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand. Blueprint suits the island's spare, chart-like character. HD files cost $9 and include six sizes, each as a 300 DPI PNG and a print-ready PDF, or you can order a matte print.
