Using Mapbox tiles with folium

As per http://python-visualization.github.io/folium/quickstart.html "Folium supports passing any Leaflet.js compatible custom tileset" let lets try that and bypass it's built in support:

folium.Map(location=[45.372, -121.6972],
       zoom_start=12,
       tiles='"http://{s}.tiles.mapbox.com/v4/wtgeographer.2fb7fc73/{z}/{x}/{y}.png?access_token=pk.xxx',
       attr='XXX Mapbox Attribution')

You'll need to places the pk.xxx with your pubilc access token.

This uses the API for Mapbox Studio Classic styles.
