Get a Green Trail SX map instead
I'm a big fan of Green Trails maps, but it seems that REI is only carrying these National Geographic maps in-store so I gave one a try. At first glance, the printing, paper, and shading of the topography look very good. However, after getting it home and pouring over the area where I will be hiking I quickly realized they don't have two very useful features: 1) the elevation at key points in trails; 2) the mileage between key points and trail intersections. The newer Green Trails maps also show typical campsite areas. I will be returning these maps and buying Green Trails ultralight, waterproof maps instead.
Disappointing map from this usually solid brand
Of all the NatGeo maps I own, this is the only one that doesn't show mileage for any of the trail segments - on the entire map!! Yet there are switchbacks so zig-zagged that they are jumbled, dotted-line mess, i.e. impossible to gauge using the scale provided. The GreenTrails versions of this area include this information, so it's definitely available and NatGeo chose to not include it, which is so bizarre to me. Save your money/time and pick up the GreenTrails versions if you want to have accurate data to plan your trips. Unfortunately I wasted time ordering this and now I have to waste more returning it and buying the GT ones.
Great map of the Enchantments
Very detailed map. I wanted this map for the Enchantment Lakes near Leavenworth. It had everything I needed.
