Pacific Crest Trail: Washington [Map Pack Bundle]

- Waterproof - Tear-Resistant - Topographic Maps

The Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) Map Pack Bundle of Washington includes two Topographic Map Guides that cover the entire PCT as it traverses the incredible terrain of the Evergreen State. The maps start at the Canadian border, and continue past the many volcanic cones of the Cascade Range. The Washington South booklet ends at the border of Oregon at the Columbia River.

The PCT spans 2,650 miles from the Canadian border, through Washington, Oregon, and California to the southern terminus at the Mexican border. The famous trail crosses some of the most wild and scenic landscapes of the western U.S., including six national parks, 25 national forests, 48 wilderness areas, the volcanic Cascade Range of the Pacific Northwest, the snowcapped Sierra Nevada, and the Mojave and Sonoran deserts.

Each PCT Topographic Map Guide includes detailed topographic maps at a scale of almost 1 inch = 1 mile. Each page is centered on the PCT and overlaps with the adjacent pages so there is little chance of getting lost. Along the bottom of each page is a trail profile that shows the distance between camping areas, trailheads, and other points of interest. The map and trail profile provide a step by step visual guide to hiking the trail, mile by rugged mile. The Topographic Map Guide is built for all levels of hiking enthusiasts, from the day tripper to the multi month 'thru-hiker'. The front pages of the printed Topographic Map Guide include resupply locations, health and safety information, and much more.

Pacific Crest Trail Washington Map Pack includes:

• Map 1002:: Pacific Crest Trail: Washington North

More convenient and easier to use than folded maps, but just as compact and lightweight, National Geographic's Topographic Map Guide booklets are printed on 'Backcountry Tough' waterproof, tear-resistant paper with stainless steel staples. A full UTM grid is printed on the map to aid with GPS navigation.
