Topographic Map Guide makes a perfect traveling companion when traversing the
southeastern Pennsylvania section of the Appalachian Trail (A.T.). The map
follows the ridges of the Appalachian Mountains, crosses the 12-mile wide,
agriculturally rich Cumberland Valley, and weaves in and out of suburbia. This
section of trail, which is notoriously rocky, is rich in history with traces
of early industry—charcoal furnaces, railroads, and coal mining.Each A.T.
Topographic Map Guide includes detailed topographic maps at a detail of 1 inch
= 1 mile. Each page is centered on the A.T. and overlaps with the adjacent
pages so there is little chance of getting lost. Along the bottom of each page
is a trail profile that shows the distance between shelters, camping areas,
and trail access points. The map and trail profile provide a step by step
visual guide to hiking the trail, mile by rugged mile. The Topographic Map
Guide is built for all levels of hiking enthusiasts, from the day tripper to
the multi month ‘thru-hiker’. The front pages of the printed Topographic Map
Guide include resupply information, town inset maps, camping options, and much
more.Every Topographic Map Guide is printed on “Backcountry Tough” waterproof,
