A fold-out pocket guide map formed from a rectilinear sheet has a number of folds and cuts along two horizontal axes and a plurality of vertical axes. Two parallel horizontal folds approximately one quarter from the top and bottom edges form two wide horizontal flaps whose edges meet close against each other to form a contiguous surface area. A plurality of equidistant vertical folds facilitates folding of the map. Cuts made on even numbered vertical folds within the horizontal flaps form smaller flaps that can be manipulated to access the surface area beneath the horizontal flaps, thereby eliminating the need to lift the horizontal flaps in their entirety. Accordion folding the sheet along the vertical axes forms dual-panel pages, each page having two movable panel flaps that may be opened independently of each other, while all unopened pages remain cleanly and conveniently collapsed in a compact state.
