How to read this map

The Chubut River is about 810 km (503 mi) long and drains a basin of about 53,800 km² (20,800 sq mi). Its average discharge is about 30 m³/s (1,060 cu ft/s). It flows into the Atlantic Ocean. Tributaries include Tecka River and Chico River.

The highlighted blue line is the course of the Chubut River as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include Trelew and Puerto Madryn.

Greens show lower elevations; tan and brown show higher land, with pale tones toward the highest terrain. Shadows emphasize the slopes, and vertical relief is exaggerated so landforms are easier to read. Dashed lines show country borders.

The relief uses Terrain Tiles (SRTM, GMTED2010 and ETOPO1 elevation data). Rivers, lakes, borders and the course of the Chubut River come from Natural Earth, and the figures on this page from Wikidata. Natural Earth draws features at a small scale, so the line is a guide to where the Chubut River is, not a surveyed boundary.
