That information isn't lost on the black and white maps. The green
forested areas print as grey on the black and white maps. It is more
difficult to see than the color version, but it is possible. The PCT
guidebook maps are like that.
It isn't possible to tell the difference between Jonathan's alternate
routes and the primary route in the black and white version. The
11x17 version is much nicer to read though than the 8.5x11 version
(in B&W or color).
