The A.T. Guide

The A.T. Guide is the premier Appalachian Trail guidebook. This book provides mileage data for the entire length of the Appalachian Trail. It is the book preferred by thru-hikers (hikers intending to walk trail end-to-end in one season), but it can be used for hikes of any length. <P>The book's distinctive shape opens wide to provide a long view of the trail's elevation profile and data. The profile is watermarked on the text so that you know not only what's ahead, but whether you will be going up or down (or both) to get there. There are 50 maps of the towns you are most likely to visit for resupply. Icons help you to quickly identify what you need, like shelters, water, and campsites. <P>The A.T. Guide has all the information that you need for a hike of any length on the Appalachian Trail in a compact, lightweight and easy-to-use format.
