[pct-l] Update: PCT digitized base map project

[John Abela]

Very sweet update!!

I keep meaning to recommend you color the pct trail in red rather than
black, so having it be blue now helps a lot.

The shading is a nice update as well. Adds helpful terrain details.

The elevations on the bottom is super sweet. A nice next step to being
able to produce full on trail maps.
