[pct-l] Where are maps useful?

[Jim Keener]

Tom Harrison has beautiful maps printed on waterproof plastic of the  
JMT/PCT in the Sierra. But I agree with Brick - they're not needed.  
The guide book maps are adequate. Jonathan Ley, on the other hand, has  
maps on his site of alternate routes in the Glacier Park area. Some  
hikers have said that they are valuable. I do not have experience with  
them.
