    Don't know when it will be out but hopefully by next March when I plan on hiking the trail. If not, oh well.

    FWIW I took what they had on-line from various pages and made myself a databook style document in word. You can find it on this post: http://www.whiteblaze.net/forum/show...90&postcount=8

    IT may be helpful until the real deal comes out. Like I said, I just organized info already on their site. Nothing special here.

    Thanks Rock. If the databook isn't ready by next year, the doc with the available maps should do.

    I just noticed that the BMT databook is out. Anyone have it yet, comments pros or cons on it.

    I bought it and used it last week on a hike in the Smokies. I recommend that you pick one up if you're interested in hiking on the BMT.

    I have to catch up with you first since you have already sectioned some on it.

    Not sure when I can get back down that way. I will keep you in the loop.


    Mowgli, thanks I will probably buy.
