Yeah. A map. And it has more information than Google Earth does. Presented in a clearer format.

Griff, your trip and pics are very enticing
... I particularly liked that morning/evening view of the same scene.
But I'm surprised there's no evidence of biting bugs.

Your pics did remind me of those I made back in the 70's when
my family was on back-packing vacations in the Canadian Rockies.
If family members were in one of my pic's, they most always were seen from their backside,
because I was the one carrying the camera and usually the straggler in the group.
I now wish I had made a run-around to get people coming towards me on the trails,
or given the camera over to our dog who was most always out front.

Looks like you had a good time there, sir. Normally I'd be jelly, but we (Amanda & I)
were up in Jim Thorpe doing much the same thing this week...

She has pictures on her camera of a really cool Turtle, and a Bald Eagle eating a fish.
I'll try to get them from her on Sunday.

It would look great on paper.

Evidence of mosquitoes can be found up and down Little Griff's legs. A few biting flies as well. We had a screen tent at the camp where we hung out and ate. It made for a heavy kayak but was worth it. The skeeters didn't exist on the water though.

Good times Jimbo!
