Hurricane reroutes may still be in place next summer, but no changes have been made to the "official" mileage data on account of them. Total milage has increased by 3.2 miles to 2184.2, but that is due to changes elsewhere.
The 2012 edition should ship around January 20, and this is what's new:
-There are new town & area maps: Atlanta area, the region near the south end of the trail (helps show how to get to Springer parking), Great Barrington, Unionville, Falls Village, SNP Loft Mtn Campground, SNP Swift Run Gap and Killington. There are now over 60 such maps.
- There are all new icons, redesigned to provide a more consistent look and to be more readily identifiable. Icons have been added for lookout towers, and flora notes, and to differentiate unreliable water sources.
- Elevation profiles are slightly larger, allowing better alignment with landmarks.
- Thorough town research has lead to many new listings and updates to dozens of other services.
