Sorry
But I'm not that Matt, I don't know Todd either. I work with the PCTA trail=
 maintenance crews headed by Pete Fish. I am a "swat team" member
going out on short notice to remove obstructions and survey trail storm
damage.

So all you hikers if you find a tree or other obstruction a Latitude/Longit=
ude
for the obstruction would be great! an elevation and general location will =
work too!

Check out my website of local trails @ www.mattmaxon.com

My national geographic Topo! region for the Southern California
portion of the PCT @ http://www.mattmaxon.com/ngtopo.html

The Yellow track is the tail as shown in the guide as traced by Tom Reynold=
s of Pasadena, CA , red track is my track collected with a GPS, I have repe=
atedly checked the data against several GPS unit at the same time and compa=
ring barometric altitude readings with the position shown and find the trac=
ks to be more accurate than the USGS maps and Guide book, but you can decid=
e for yourself.

Portion of Section E as an online interactive Manifold 5.5Pro map, this ser=
ver is slow so be patient http://pctmap.homedns.org/section-f
