Yogi's trail book, ripped apart into pertinent sections, and her laminated
resupply cards, were the most common guides used on trail in 2010.  Every
person I hiked with had copies, and we were always surprised when we heard
of anyone, (there were a few) not having them.  They are incredibly useful
when you get into places, especially towns you don't know, where they give
you some idea of which end is up, what direction is the best store, post
office, or ice cream parlor, it's all in there.  (Speaking of which, I just
got a call from Max Chill who had his whole, PCT1 trail crew at the little
store in Etna for the great ice cream.  The rain was coming down and they
will be out there working trail again all this week.  That's trail
angeling!!!).  Her books have a great reputation and were genuinely liked
for their humor and accuracy by all I hiked with.

Download Half Mile's maps and buy Yogi's book and you'll be pretty well set
for guide material.  If you're up for the walk, and just keep putting one
foot in front of the other, you'll have a good chance of making it.
