Only sorta accurate
i bought this months ago for a week on the AT this week. within a few hours i realized that things were not marked correctly, mileage was a little off, and names of shelters had changed. i was under the impression this was the most updated version, and maybe that my fault, but don’t get this guidebook if you’re planning on spending time out there. get your guidebook from the AT conservatory itself. profits go to the trail anyway. i will be returning this
Great map of the full trail
This National Geographic map of the full Appalachian Trail is easy to use. Personally I have it mounted to foam-core board in its full length, and hung on a kitchen wall. That allows me to fully access all points upon the map, and it looks great too!
