[pct-l] Erik the Black's Maps: They're Excellent!!!

[Tortoise]

As Paul mentioned, one does have the cost of printing halfmile's maps.
But one need only print the ones he/she will use. Then there is one's time 
to print, collate, etc.

I've used halfmile's maps the last two years for my section hikes and I'm 
satisfied with them. Haven't seen Erik's so I express no opinion on them.
