"Read the clues in my poem over and over and study maps of the Rocky Mountains." Try to marry the two."
Example of the quote:
A possible hint to study a 'good' map in order to marry the clues in his poem other than the map used in TTOTC book?
What are good maps??? I am confused about what kind of maps to buy. Do I need all the four states? When one looks at a map what do we all see? To travel to a spot on the map we need roads. We need to drive to the starting point. Where in the poem does it say roads to travel on to the starting point? And the word "try"?
Used as a Verb:Try = To divide; to separate. To attempt; to endeavour. To separate (obsolete) . To winnow; to sift; to pick out; frequently followed by out (one sort from another) . To extract (nautical) . To test, to work out.
Continental divide. The fence that divides the states. Do we need to remove the fence and then sew it back up together?
Used as a Noun:Try = An attempt. An act of tasting or sampling. (rugby) A score in rugby, analogous to a touchdown in American football.
(Britain, dialect, obsolete) A screen, or sieve, for grain.
Used as a Adjective:(American football) a field goal or extra point. (rugby) A score in rugby, analogous to a touchdown in American football.
(Britain, dialect, obsolete) A screen, or
sieve, for grain. (American football) a field goal or extra point.
Makes me want to sieve the poem and then stitch it into the map.
Then the word "marry".
Which one is the husband and wife. Is the poem the husband or wife? The map(s) of the Rocky Mountains? Husband or wife. Replace the words with these two and see if it helps understanding.
Used as a Verb:(nautical) To join (two ropes)
end to end so that both will pass through a block. (lighting a candle on two ends). Tie the end of the poem clues to the other end of the map(s) of the Rocky Mountains. Those two words look so familiar to each other? Why was those words used? Example th

How about that word "hitch" that is on another thread here in MW.
Then we have the nouns: Poem and Map "of" Rocky Mountains. There are two Rocky Mountains? That word two again.
So if I was to take the poem as the thread I would stitch it into the map of the Rocky Mountains. But which of the two Rocky Mountains?
The one he writes about most?
Then there is that word "precisely" like the poem is instructions. Follow the nine clues in exact order. We just need the nine strings and stitch them into the map of the Rocky Mountains. We need to be in the Rocky Mountains.
What is Rocky? Swaying. Switching, Switch like a rocking chair if used has a verb.
