2.0 out of 5 stars Need it in digital format, January 21, 2011

This review is from: Best Short Hikes in California's North Sierra (Paperback)
I wish this author and others would start including a disc in their hiking books with the trails in Google Earth KML format, so people can view and mark/measure locations on the marked hikes. Would be easier to find and view listed parking areas, points of interest, drinking fountain/restroom locations, elevation changes, views from trail, streams, trail junctions, plants, lookouts, ranger stations, closed areas;etc.

Maybe the author could convert the whole book to KML format and just sell it as a KML downloadable file for the same price?
Could include a LOT more pictures and area information and links in the KML and there is NO publishing cost.

Something to consider. This is the digital age. You don't need to be a programmer to create a KML file. You don't need to make a app. Some Apps out there like MapBox that will load kml files.

Also, you can sell a Google Earth KML from your web site. You don't need to sell it on a app store and share the profits with publishers or app stores.
