5.0 out of 5 stars
Great for planning out your backcountry route, June 26, 2011
This review is from: Death Valley National Park Recreation Map (Map)
The Tom Harrison maps each cover a lot of area and are perfect for planning your backcountry trips. Because of the large areas they cover the detail isn't very close-up so definitely not good for backcountry route finding if doing anything above class 1. If needing a map to navigate by when going cross country then get a USGS map which won't cover as much area but has much better detail. They do work well in conjuction with my gps if I stay on trail though which reduces the # of maps I have to take with me and less is always a good thing when it comes to my backpack weight. They are also waterproof which is pretty much a necessity in my opinion. Very happy with this purchase for what I use it for...trip planning.
