Hmmm, will these be available in GPX format for handheld GPS's I wonder?

The Topo Maps all all uploaded now.

I have not been able to come across any GPX file as of yet.

These are pretty sweet. Will they be available for download as files?

When viewing the page you should be able to cursor your mouse over each map and right click on it and save each map that way.

Topo Masp 73 - 81 (http://www.whiteblaze.net/forum/../index.php?page=lt5)Thanks for posting these. THey are awesome.

One tiny problem. The nine images in folder 73-81 are identical to the first nine images in folder 55-72.

Do you have the maps for the northernmost section of the trail?

Oh no. I must have made a small error. I will fix that later tonight. Thanks a lot for pointing that out Frosty.

if these were bigger, i'd probably spend my jobs time and money transposing them into GPX / KML

Here you go, Yukon. GPX format. Had to Zip it to upload it here.

Have to play around with it I guess. This file opens with Easy GPS, but it is not composed of waypoints, right?

I just took Totem's GPX file and converted it to a Google Earth file and attached it to the first post in this thread (http://www.whiteblaze.net/forum/showpost.php?p=802114&postcount=1). Now you can view the trail on Google Earth.

What's a.kmz file?

attroll

A KMZ file is used in conjunction with Google Earth. Google Earth is a program which shows a satellite view of the earth. You can zoom right down in on buildings and houses. If is a really neat program.

I just downloaded the beta 5 version of Google Earth. And took a virtual walk. Now if I read the directions,I'll do much better. Thanks for the topo maps and the conversion to KMZ. Mark S.

I will have to check and get back to you.

Map #1 was remade and a scale was placed at the bottom of it.

I can't seem to download the zip file of the .GPX file that Manwich posted. Could someone repost the .gpx file please?

When i click on the zip file already posted it just goes to a blank page instead of poping up the file for download like normal.

Every so often, Manwich the Narcissist checks the search page for the search term "Manwich" and I find a reply like yours.

The download still works for me but in case you're still interested and it still doesn't work for you, I've mirrored the file to another website... http://www.crocko.com/1E1FEB5844F64D82B39061599301917F/longtrail.zip

No telling how long it will stay uploaded for.

I know this thread is a few years old, but I was wondering if you could re-upload the maps, or possibly email them to me. If you could that would be much appreciated!

It's sad that we can't access these maps anymore. Broke hikers like me could really use them. I'll be on the LT in a couple weeks.

I don't want to get on the high horse about this, but you've probably heard this before: if you can afford to go on a multiple week backpacking trip, you can drop a few dollars on a decent map. The Green Mountain Club's LT Map (https://www.greenmountainclub.org/product_detail.php?sku=2216) is ten bucks. Sixteen with shipping. The money supports the trail club, which does practically all of the maintenance of the trail, shelters, and outhouses. I bought my map four years ago, and it's still holding up after countless weekend trips, and a just-completed through-hike. It's one of the better trail maps out there, and won't do much damage to your wallet.

Or you can just follow the white blazes and read the signs along the trail. You'll get where you need to go.

Yep, I'd say the waterproof map is all you actually need. Has shelter locations, road crossings and distances. forget the basically useless End to Ender guide and definitely skip the Long Trail Guide

The maps don't seem to download on my iPad. I'll have to go to the desktop and see if windows will help me out.

Got me! But:

CalTopo has excellent GeoPDF creation tools, and the Long Trail (http://caltopo.com/map.html#ll=44.9509,-72.50773&z=13&b=mbt) is in their included MapBuilder Topo data.

The latest map from the Green Mountain Club (https://store.greenmountainclub.org/collections/gmc-publications/products/new-5th-edition-vermonts-long-trail-map-waterproof) is a great option (and supports GMC, etc.), with a trail profile and good data, and is a pretty, waterproof map.

The links are from 2009, so they are probably long gone.
