What others are saying about Halfmile’s PCT maps
Go with Halfmile's Maps. I know it looks intimidating at first, but they are simple, and most importantly, reliable.

Many hikers used Halfmile's maps this year, and they were mostly much happier than those who used Eric The Black's books….I'll admit that I found Eric's maps to be more pleasing to the eye, but Halfmile's are more accurate. Guess which is more important...My recommendation, if you need one, is that you go with Halfmile's maps...

Halfmile’s PCT maps [are] excellent, free PCT maps. The most accurate that I’v seen so far.
-Freebird, PCT 2010 in his Trail Journal

If I did it again I would print out and use Halfmile’s maps. I think of all the maps I saw they were the best, plus they were free.

My friends and I have been hiking sections of PCT over the past three years and have used every map type there is, but Halfmile's maps are the best we have ever used.
