You will use your data book far more than you will use any map. You'll
consult your data book many times during the day. When you do consult
your maps, it will likely be for a general idea of where you're at in
the big picture.

With that said, you should definitely carry maps for those *very few*
times you'll need them for navigation along the PCT.

You have 2 options for a data book that matches respective map sets:

Ben Go's data book that matches the WP guide books:

Free postholer data book that matches the postholer maps:
