Agency Maps
USFS, BLM, and other broad-area paper maps covering the route's lands


A rewarding adventure often begins with the right maps!


Here's what to do:

Use the overview maps on this website to get a feel for the route.
Order the Topo Mapset for the detailed maps and GPS data needed to successfully follow the GET.
In addition, consider carrying broad-area paper maps for the region(s) through which you'll be traveling, whether for travel off the suggested route, in the event of an emergency, or simply for a broader perspective.

The appropriate agency maps for each segment of the Grand Enchantment Trail are listed below. Click on the links in the last column at right to order these maps online.

Maps in this list produced by the USFS are generally planimetric and lack topo lines, except for Wilderness maps which are topographic (and printed on heavy-stock waterproof paper). BLM 1:100k series maps are topographic and show land ownership. Please note that none of these maps explicitly shows the GET.
