[pct-l] fyi on Calif. section E Topo mapxchange PCT route

[Ralph Alcorn]

For those of you using the Topo PCT route on mapxchange, there are two
places in section D where the route doesn't match the guidebook map.
One is on Map E3 of guidebook where trail goes thru Bear Spring, and
topo route shows it thru Big Oak Spring. The other is on Maps E9 and
E10. Just after the sag pond (3810-0.6) the guide book route turns
north while the Topo route continues a couple miles east before
turning north. In both cases, I think the Topo exchange route is
wrong.

You can go to the postholer.com section E gps points and copy and
paste into Topo just the coordinates for E9-E10 trail segment in
question, and it will match the guidebook. The postholer gps points
for the E3 route are partly missing and partly match the Topo route.
