Last year I hiked part of TN/ NC border and used the official AT Conservancy maps + the Data book. I met several people who had printed off information for their section that included both map (with elevation info) as well as Data (water sources/food resupply/etc). I wish I had written down what it was they had!!!!
Now that I'm planning this year's trip, I can't seem to find any such electronic source. I just downloaded the 2011 Thru Hiker's Companion and am bitterly disappointed about this $8 purchase. Plenty of info but no map. Maybe I'm cheap... it just seems like there has got to be a more efficient way of selling this information. Must I carry a map and book!?!?!?!?
Anyone have any insight?
