Podcast: Play in new window | Download | Embed
On this episode we share WHICH trail map is best for you and how it can differ depending on WHERE you are backpacking. Maps offer you a way to read the terrain in a way you cannot visually see from your point of view. We will define the different boundaries and which government entity governs them. Along with a TIP on which map you should ALWAYS have in your car and how to begin using maps to your advantage!
What we talk about:
- How did we not see a 50 mile wide hole in the ground
- I prefer to be “old school” in the backcountry – Ariane
- Let’s talk about “Boundaries”.
- This map type is most useful when planning a trip
- Make sure you understand how to read topography
