<BR>On our first thruhike, I rewrote the guides for a northbound hike - but then we ended up going south after all. On our second hike I just used the JW guides, even though we were going north. For me, it wasn't a problem. Some people are good at translating guidebooks to the ground, others aren't. I love guidebooks. My husband loves maps. Together, we do just fine. One thing with the JW books - in some areas you need both the original book and the addendum. Don't carry just one or the other - you need both. It is more work - but worth it in the end. I crossed out the sections in the book that had become obsolete so I wouldn't confuse the two. <BR>

I've got <BR>> Wolf's guides and am planning a nobo hike. For the states that the <BR>> guides are sobo-only, how much use were they. Did you consult them all <BR>> the time or did you use them only for planning?<BR>> <BR>> Also, has anyone tried to rewrite the Wolf guides in nobo order for <BR>> his/her hike?<BR>> <BR>> Handlebar<BR>> _______________________________________________<BR>> Cdt-l mailing list<BR>> Cdt-l@backcountry.net<BR>> http://mailman.backcountry.net/mailman/listinfo/cdt-l<BR> </body>
