This review is from: Trails Illustrated National Parks Guadalupe Mountains (Trails Illustrated - Topo Maps USA) (Paperback)

I found this map unproblematically useful during two visits to the Guadalupe Mountains National Park. Contours and all other data are clear, and, so far as I could tell, accurate. Benchmarks are numerous enough to do the job and mileages are indicated in bold along all trail segments. Trails in GUMA are well engineered and maintained, with little or no route-finding involved, but the visitor will nonetheless find this map helpful when visiting the backcountry (and this park is almost all backcountry). I would only remark that the coverage extends a mere mile or so north of the Park (and Texas) boundary, so if you venture into Lincoln National Forest and the pretty canyon country in the direction of the Carlsbad Caverns National Park, you'll need to get more topos or use a GPS device. The TI maps are available at the Visitor Centers for GUMA and Carlsbad, but I don't recall seeing US GS topos there.
