This slim data book is a must have for anyone needing just the bare bones for your PCT trip plans. To be used in conjunction with the PCT guidebooks from the same company (Wilderness Press), this book by Benjamin Go is instrumental for on-the-go details such as mileage between feature points, landmarks, resupply locations, and other really important trail information you will need before and after setting out.
