These maps are very good, however the map maker has decided to add large boxes of "must have information" all over the map face. This leaves these areas unusable. In an attempt to use the maps to climb Ampersand mountain the trails and areas surrounding the mountain are unusable on both overlapping maps of the area. Not an intelligent idea.

Nice map except in numerous areas the map maker has added "cutsie information" boxes that hide the actual map. Wish they had put the boxes off the map.

I did not expect this map to be so informative. The trails are marked clearly and give good landmark directions. I would prefer to see ALL of the trails labeled; however it is still worth the purchase.
