As a souvenir as much as for route guidance, I want to buy a new paper map for this trip. I'm a mapaholic and prefer them to any kind of website or GPS system. I have an old (and now worn and holey!) paper map of BC that includes enough of Alberta that I've been using it for my research and initial route planning. Not counting local variations, each line of longitude is divided by fifteen. However, as said post 10 gives good info and mentioned the continental divide which I can see on some of the maps I have.Ĭhanging the subject, and moving onto maps. I think with this (and of course also the official manual stated in the other answer) it's quite safe to say that Google gives you the local time at your departure and arrival points and does not take into account your system's local time. The Earth is loosely divided into 24 regions (time zones) separated by longitude. Incidentally, the topic linked in post 2, Mufti's links in post 5 to actual maps no longer work. Future changes are usually incorporated into our database before they take effect, so the map accurately reflects the current situation. It's as I had assumed in the first place., my spreadsheet is still correct! All clock changes worldwide are automatically taken into account and displayed in real-time as soon as you reload the page.
For example, if you travel the 1061 km (659 mi) across the date line from Baker Island to Tokelau, you must add 25 hours, or 1 day and 1 hour. However, from your comments, my eastern BC stops are still sufficiently west to be on Pacific time, so that's all OK. See the date line on our Time Zone Map Not Always 24 Hours Depending on which time zone the country follows, the time difference on either side of the line is not always 24 hours. (Note that the geographic location of a user will only display if he or she has allowed location sharing.

I had read already that a few small places in eastern BC were on Mountain time but nowhere I could find specified the actual destinations. This tutorial shows you how to display the geographic location of a user or device on a Google map, using your browsers HTML5 Geolocation feature along with the Maps JavaScript API.
