EEEEEKKKK.... the books are here! So I haven't started reading them yet as they are rather long etc... but I have ripped out the pages of Yogi's book at the back and now plan to use the next few days (if I get time) to divide the maps from the Wilderness Press Books up according to Yogi's instructions and see what we can do from there. Below you can see an example of what the maps look like in the book. I think Sara will be using the Half-mile maps and I am kind of considering those too as these ones are not always full page maps etc which I find a little irritation. As you can see with the map on the right it's only on part of the page and I am not sure I could cope with that on the trail when I'm panicking about where to go.
The other book in the picture 'The Ultimate Hiker's Gear Guide' is a great book on hiker equipment and just general information on how to use your equipment. I have really liked it so far but found it is not absolutely necessary to have with all the information on the internet.
