John Muir Trail - Map

Updated July 2018

I’m a visual planner and need to have a map in front of me to prepare for any hiking or backpacking trips. So I put together this JMT map with as many of the major planning details I could think of: campsites we chose, resupply options, every major pass, and important landmarks. I also imported the Inyo bear food storage map which overlays sections that require canisters (red). View and hide layers by expanding the panel icon just left of the map title. You can also view a larger map by clicking the icon at the far right of the top bar.
