Appalachian Trail Guide to Maryland-Northern Virginia

The official guide to 95 miles of the Appalachian Trail from the Pennsylvania line, south through the center of Maryland, briefly into West Virginia through Harpers Ferry National Historical Park, and down along the West Virginia-Virginia line to the entrance to Shenandoah National Park. The book includes trail-route descriptions in a "unidirectional" format and thorough information on the lands through which the footpath winds, all rich in colonial and Civil War history. The three detached maps are scaled at either 1:62,5000 or 1:50,000 with 100-foot or 10-meter contour intervals and elevation profiles.
