Personal Trip Maps

Here you will find maps of all my trips with the campsite and trailhead locations used.  The QR code at the bottom of the map allows you to download a geospatial PDF which you can then open with the free Avenza Maps app.   This allows you to find your location on the map, should you want to do a similar trip.   

I use Caltopo for almost all of my pre-trip mapping and planning.  Here you can plot custom routes and add markers for anything you want to note for your trip.  The site allows export of your custom maps to your mobile devices in several different formats.

 

Disclaimer:  You should always do your own research and plan your trips according to your groups experience, fitness and comfort levels.
