Good evening, Sarah,
I didn't use the guidebook for that section, I used a USFS fold-out map entitled, PCT - Washington, North which I found satisfactory. I do not know if it continues to be available.
For Manning information see this site: http://www.env.gov.bc.ca/bcparks/explore/parkpgs/manning.html
The lodge is within a few hundred yards of the trail head. In 2002 when I finished at Manning there were several restraunts and a little convenience/novelty store, but I do not know when they open.
Enjoy...
