    Default AT GPS data

    I know I can download shape files and esri files from the http://www.appalachiantrail.org/site...d_GPS_Data.htm site, but I just want a simple AT marking in my Google Earth. I found a kml file for the AT, but it isn't too accurate, and I was wondering if someone here knows of a way to convert the official AT GIS data to a kml file (or even just a simple text file containing long lat points - I can do the rest).

    so, anyone here picks the glove?

    thanks anyway.
