I highly recommend this map! My husband and I just completed the John Muir Trail with this map last week 7/12/15. We opted for this map because we went with 2 other people who had the Tom Harrison map set so we hoped that between the two different maps we would have all the information we could possibly need. Truth be told, we looked at the Tom Harrison map maybe twice? This map was easier to follow (no individual sheets that got out of order and blown around), easier to read (relevant mileage points, accurate mileage and accurate elevation), and easier to find trails off the JMT for emergency situations (the 2 people we were hiking with needed to leave the trail due to injury and we dealt with some crazy weather that caused many to leave the trail entirely, we helped one find her way out with our map). The front two pages have an overview elevation profile and each map page had a more detailed profile which we found extremely helpful in planning out our days. In addition, we had an alternate starting point (Glacier Point/4 Mile Trail) and the Tom Harrison map does not cover this area. The Tom Harrison map was the only one recommended to us, but, I am so glad we ended up with this one. It is slightly heavier, but you could cut out some of the informative pages to cut weight or cut and throw out pages as you go as some do with the Tom Harrison set (our scale showed 3.1 once exactly untouched). Unfortunately, it got lost in our hotel room... we will be buying a second one just to have around!
WARNING: not for hikers going Northbound, and stepping off from Cottonwood Lakes / Horseshoe Ranch trailhead. This guide starts at Mount Whitney and does not include maps for any trailheads south of Mount WhitneyPros: (1) perfect for SOBO hikers or NOBO hikers starting at whitney portal. It has everything you will need and you should mark it up with a Sharpie with additional information (2) waterproof and rip-proof. It lasted the entire trip through several storms. Excellent in this regardCons: (1) not for anyone going NOBO from Cottonwood or Horseshoe areas. You will need an app or a printout to assist you; (2) pens and pencils don't work on it. Even some sharpies erased. You will need a conventional permanent Sharpie to mark it up.
This was the only paper guide that I took with me on my John Muir Trail thru hike, along with the Guthook app on my phone. I can't believe how many people on the trail carry huge heavy guidebooks. This map is all you need, especially if you plan on doing side trails or alternate routes while hiking the JMT. There was one 1 mile trail off of the Bearcreek Cutoff Trail that we couldn't find at all even though it was marked on the National Geographic map. The trail was so old and overgrown, that we just followed our compass south for a mile until we found the San Joaquin River which led us to the intersecting trail which eventually brought us to Florence Lake. If we had not been carrying this topo map, there would have been no way to figure out our location. Thanks Nat Geo!
The NatGeo map guide served us SO well on our SoBo JMT hike this summer! We used this in planning the hike and also on the trail itself, and it excelled in both areas.For planning, we used the established campsites shown on the map to help us plan where we generally wanted to camp, and the elevation profiles were helpful as a quick reference to make sure our days weren't unreasonably strenuous, and that our itinerary positioned us well to get over passes early in the day. Of course, we strayed a bit from our planned itinerary once we were actually out on the trail, but the planning we did with this map gave us a great starting point.The map was the most helpful on the trail itself. We used it primarily for quick-checks on elevation (seeing how much more we had to climb), finding good places to camp (looking at both listed campsites and also relatively flat stretches along the trail), and mileage checks when we reached junctions or any other points with marked mileage. When we needed more precision, we used our GPS app (Gaia), which worked well in conjunction with the map. We didn't go off trail, so we didn't ever have to rely on the NatGeo map for any map and compass navigation. We kept the map in the outside pocket of a pack without extra protection, and there were no tears or faded ink by the end of the three weeks.I haven't seen the Harrison maps, so I can't make a comparison. But this NatGeo map guide met all of our needs, and we saw many other hikers using it along the trail. I'd recommend it to anyone doing the JMT. Happy trails!
A very nice set of maps and information about the John Muir Trail. In the end I wound up not taking these on my hike and used the Harris maps instead, but I did read the information that was included in the book and it does provide good information.
National Geographic maps are equally as good as Tom Harrison's, and I have used on several hikes. So, it comes down to preferences for style, details important to the hiker, map size and detailed colors and accompanying lettering, which are important to many hikers.Thank you and saludos, Rolando
Very detailed. Has good contours and topography on it. Sometimes I like a fold out map but this works just fine. Made very well. Have it for about a year now. Looks like it will last a while.
Really a fantastic waterproof pamphlet-style map of the JMT. So many little notations, icons, markings, etc. on this map. Can fit in your pocket since it's as wide as a shirt pocket. A bit heavy for a map, but it's 48 pages total (front and back cover, and each page half counted as 1 page). Total of 34 pages of map (17 maps, each takes up 2 half-pages), and there are 12 pages of very useful information in the front of this map pack including grids of distances between trail junctions, notable map points, etc. The printing is so clear, and the topo is very easy to read and understand. Great color shading and high definition. I'm going to be bringing this with me on the JMT this summer as my primary map.
