Description

The Tennessee-North Carolina edition covers 303.9 miles from Damascus, Virginia, near the Tennessee state line to the southern end of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park at Fontana Dam, North Carolina, including parts of the Cherokee and Pisgah national forests. This set includes one guidebook and four maps on two sheets (scale, 1:63,360), plus the National Geographic map of Great Smoky Mountains National Park (scale, 1:62,500).The pocket-sized planning guide contains background and interpretive information, points of interest, general advice, shelters, water sources, and road crossings. The omnidirectional format allows you to see where you are whether southbound or northbound. Each map is focused on the Appalachian Trail and overlaps with the neighboring maps. The surrounding area, out to about three miles, and additional side trails are also included. An easy-to-use elevation profile shows ups and downs and the distance to the next campsite or shelter, side trails, and water sources. For added interest, maps indicate federal or state lands, road crossings, waterfalls, and scenic areas. Maps are both water- and tear-resistant.

    Most reliable resources

    I will always use the official guidebooks and maps. These remain the most reliable tools and support the trail for all of us.

    Seemed pricey but is complete

    I hesitated at first to buy the package, but if you're planning a multi day trip, it seems to be the simplest yet most complete way to get the information and have it in one place. .

    Roan Highlands

    Posted by Jim Fitch on Apr 10th 2019

    Maps are good but missing the symbol for "Spring" in the key; would have liked a more detailed description of overall condition and parking availability at key locations (e.g., Deep Gap) for Forest Road 30 in the Guide Book.
