Here's a comparison of DeLorme 6.0 trace and the USDA pct_1 trace for the 
first few miles of the trail:

The dashed red line is DeLorme. This particular segment it's as good as it 
gets. Several places are literally miles off. I would not consider using the 
DeLorme trace for anything except for a map with a very large zoom factor 
and then only for show, not navigating.
