The official Appalachian Trail maps are essential hiking materials for both thru and section hikers. Each map is focused on the Appalachian Trail and overlaps with the neighboring maps, ideal for long-distance hikes and planning. The surrounding area and additional side trails are also included. An easy-to-use elevation profile shows the distance to the next campsite or shelter, side trails, and water sources. For added interest, maps indicate road crossings, waterfalls, and scenic areas. Maps are both water- and tear-resistant. The Massachusetts-Connecticut edition covers 141 miles from the Vermont state line to the New York state line, in four maps on two sheets. This set also includes side trails in the northern Berkshires (Mt. Greylock area). • Maps 1 & 2 : The Berkshires of Massachusetts; County Road in Vermont to Jug End, Massachusetts Seven-color, 1:63,360-scale topographic maps with 100 foot contour intervals. 1 inch = 1 mile.
