<DIV><STRONG>Thanks, Jerry for a stupendous job!</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>3 ?s, at your convenience: <STRONG>1.</STRONG> A second to
Yogi's question about a WY Book discount? <STRONG>2.</STRONG> How will the
updates be handled? It would be nice if one could somehow buy and download
just the updated pages, although the waypoints would probably be wrong for
the rest of the book. <STRONG>3. </STRONG>Although I'll be done by
the time it might happen, will you eventually add the alternate
routes?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Already bought CO, NM, & MT/ID; waiting discount word on WY,</DIV>

the four books of maps for the entire trail. This has been a long, hard

this point. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

total number of individual maps for the entire trail is 390. They are
reduced by 1/3 from the original topos to a scale of 1:36,000
(1”=3,000’). They are gridded with UTM coordinates for easy GPS use and
have precise compass declinations calculated for every map. (Map
declinations constantly change and become useless after 10-15 years so the
ones on most USGS topos are wrong.) <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

waypoints have been finalized and are on the web site. There were some
coding corrections made so if you already have the Wyoming waypoints I would
recommend getting the updated set. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

will be going out each summer with the GPS gear to pick up trail
changes. The USFS is going to notify me when changes occur but in case
that doesn’t always happen, I would appreciate hearing from hikers who find
re-routed trail so I can keep these books current. Best way is to let me
know the waypoint id codes where the new piece begins and ends so I can plan
accordingly. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
