Good morning,
For the large-view purpose you describe I prefer to carry prints of USGS
1:500,000 maps from my National Geographic TOPO! software. Since I already
have the PCT route and related information displayed on TOPO! it’s easy to
print a 1:500k map for each resupply segment.
For those who do not have TOPO! for the entire three-state distance maybe
HalfMile could be persuaded to add this type of overview to his trail map
offering.
Enjoy your planning,
Steel-Eye
Hiking the Pct since before it was the PCT – 1965
