Heavy duty book style map
As always, National Geographic makes excellent maps. Like their other long trail maps it's book style where each page has shorter sections rather than the larger maps that unfold. Each of these has the normal topo map plus a chart of the elevation - incredibly useful when planning the day's mileage. I do find the book style annoying and, while heavy duty is good, I wish that there was an option that's perhaps less heavy duty but doesn't weigh as much. Ultralighters might balk at its 2.6 oz/73 gram weight. To put that in perspective, that's nearly three BRS stoves. You can always take pictures of the pages and use your phone, but that relies on batteries and might be redundant if you buy a GPS app.
Great Map!
Great to have paper maps still and dedicated to a specific trip!
