Maps

From my experience there are two maps of the Parashant and the surrounding area that are far superior to anything else.
1. The BLM offers one of the very best maps I have seen of any area. It is entitled "Arizona Strip District Office Visitor Map" It is printed on water proof paper and provides excellent detail of the area. I seem to recall that the cost is less than $10.00. We each should have one. They can be ordered by calling (435)688-3200 or see the following site for more info: http://www.nps.gov/para/planyourvisit/index.htm
2. USGS Topo maps available through Nat. Geo. Purchase the Arizona State Series. If you shop on line, you can get them delivered for around $80.00. You can print out maps of all of the areas that we will visit as well as use them for live tracking as we travel through the area.
