Hillside streets
Wum's roads follow the rise and fall of the land, so the town appears as a set of curving lines rather than a regular grid, reflecting the highland setting.

The map
About this Wum map poster
Wum sits in the grasslands of Cameroon's North-West Region, where the land rises and folds into hills and valleys. On a map the town does not follow a grid. Its streets bend with the terrain, gathering around a central area and then thinning into scattered settlement along the roads that climb away from it.
The town is the administrative centre of the Menchum division, an area of volcanic highlands dotted with crater lakes. The best known of these is Lake Nyos, which lies within the same division and became known worldwide after the gas release of 1986. Around Wum itself, the landscape is one of farmland, pasture and patches of forest.
A Wum map poster turns that uneven ground into a loose, organic drawing. Roads curve rather than cross at right angles, and the town's outline is soft and irregular. In black and white, those lines read almost like contour sketches, giving a sense of the hills even though the map shows only streets and paths.

Winding approach roads
The main roads into Wum twist through the surrounding hills, drawing long, looping lines that lead the eye from the edges of the poster toward the centre.
Highland surroundings
Beyond the town, scattered paths and small settlements hint at the farmland and pasture of the Menchum highlands, keeping the outer map light and open.
