    Maps are less of an issue for me. Via Topo 8, I can print my own maps. Trails, tracks and waypoints in a .gpx file enhance these maps.

    I am most interested in written descriptions of trails, including campsites, waterfalls, fords, distances and other relevant info.

    The map above is actually very good for the distance/fords/sites info. But, there isn't a single repository of .gpx info for Sipsey that I know of. But you might ask around at AlaTrails.

    If you want a larger format topo map, you can order a laminate one here. The maps were updated just last year.
