From Nazareth to Cana

Hard to read maps:
The most direct route would take Jesus, his mother, and the disciples 14 km to Cana. Using the SWP data, we see a 2.5 km trail descend to the northeast from Nazareth to Reina (see Map 4C), whose ancient name is not known. (A Sepphoris aqueduct starts in Reina.) From Reina, at 300 m above sea level, they could continue northeast about 1.5 km to a point near Gath Hepher, skirting to the east of Sepphoris.

For clarification: It appears that you are bringing to FL's attention the quality of map images within a particular resource (Galilee in the Late Second Temple and Mishnaic Periods). Is that right? I can see why you would be frustrated. [:s]
There are times where the issue legitimately belongs to the author/publisher, but there have been situations where FL has been able to resolve the issue. Hopefully that will be the case for you.

It may be best to ask a forum moderator to change the title of this thread so that it conveys what you want said. Have a suggestion? Map Quality?

Thank you, Julias for the PDF. I added it to my map collection in my own software. And strangely enough, you can read the letters of the villages.
The low-res maps problem has been on-going for about 8 years now ... readability. And of course quality media, zooming, etc isn't a Logos' talent ... Accordance is the leader there.
