Two things.  

 

(1)  Isn't a map one of the 10 essentials that we're not supposed to go
out without?  Quick, name the other nine!  <G>  And how many of the 10
essentials do we carry?

 

(2)  I have often found that the hardest map to find is the one between
the state highway map and the trail map, IOW, the one that will take us
through county roads to the trail heads.  Sometimes, that can be an
arduous task.  One quick example is getting from 19E to Hughes Gap at
Roan Mt.  It's not necessarily intuitive.
