Version
1.4 coming this summer! The official source for topo
maps of the all-new 700 mile Grand Enchantment Trail.
Hundreds
of hours in the making, this CD-ROM contains all of the 7.5'
(1:24,000 scale) USGS topographic maps you'll need to navigate
the Grand Enchantment Trail.
Here you'll find over 100 high-resolution bitmap image files
showing the entire route and its terrain, along with mileages,
GPS waypoints and much more, all viewable and printable from
your computer's desktop or with an included freeware image
application. This CD also contains a set of custom overview
maps (USGS 1:500,000) with elevation profiles, highlighting
the route's location, length, and terrain between each of
its resupply points. GPS waypoint data for the route is available
as well, both in printable and uploadable format.
All
maps are formatted for printing on 8.5" x 11" bright
white, high resolution, or waterproof printer paper, and in
most cases can be printed double-sided if desired.
All-new Version 1.4 will be available this summer, featuring
recent changes to the route in Arizona and full synchronization
with G.E.T. guidebook chapters 1-18.
This will be the most accurate and hiker-friendly version
yet! (Map Set v2.0 - to be made available upon completion
of the guide - will sync with all 39 chapters. )

Disclaimer:
While it is our hope and endeavor that the G.E.T. Topo Map Set will
allow experienced hikers to avoid most navigational problems and will
contribute to a rewarding adventure along the route, we do not guarantee
the 100% accuracy of these maps and waypoints and assume no responsibility
for their use or misuse. Hiking and backpacking are inherently risky
activities, so be sure to use these maps as part of an overall approach
to maintaining safety in the backcountry, and do not assume their
endorsement of a particular road, trail, or creek crossing, etc. Conditions
in the field can change, sometimes quickly, and property boundaries
can be redrawn to exclude public access. In short, use the maps and
benefit from them, but use your skills and your awareness too. And
always keep your options open when determining the safest and most
practical direction of travel.
