We present spectra and contour maps from a CO study of molecular clouds in the outer Galaxy. Twenty-six molecular clouds were mapped in the CO J = 1 → 0 line at λ = 2.6 mm, and two different (but partially overlapping) subsets of 10 in 13CO J = 1 → 0 and CO J = 2 → 1. Kinematic distance and linear sizes are derived from the LSR velocities of the clouds. Further analysis appears in a companion paper.
