Hi Joe Kinch, welcome and I'm glad you delurked here on MSAR-Riders.
If you don't need to unfold the map then you are using a map that has
been pre-marked with the UTM kilometer scale grid *and* labels too.
Do you buy them that way, or mark them yourselves during down times?
All, I am a fan of cheat sheets. Re maps, a good cheat sheet should
remind you ask:
* what map(s)?
* what declination?
* what coordinate system?
* what datum?
Datum gets overlooked a *lot*, and often it does not matter much but
when it does matter then the difference can be extremely important.
