This is the first map in the third series of maps. This one restores the Disney characters to the border and is used to advertise upcoming changes and additions to the park. Interestingly, although Big Thunder Mountain Railroad was not completed at the time of this map, it appears on the map giving the guests an idea of what the attraction would be like.
