[pct-l] Guide Book Question ...

[stillroaming]

Purchase your guidebooks as soon as you like.

The books are updated every few years, with addendums made available at the 
Wilderness Press website annually.

2 or 3 months ago a rep (not Ben) from Wilderness Press stated that the next 
revision, a major overhaul, will not be available till 2008. So, no sense in 
waiting to buy.

Also, if you buy from amazon.com you'll save about $30 over buying them at 
the PCTA. Read this article for the details:

Hope that helps,
Scott
