Having walked the AAWT Jan-Feb last year, I feel, perhaps stupidly, that I know the track kinda well now. With the distinctive sections and iconic names and places I can pretty much (although this is impossible) recreate the entire walk in my imagination. When I walked I used a ripped up guidebook with the relevant pages for each day.
Also, I laboriously scanned every page of the guidebook and transferred it to a kindle as a back up, but I'm looking for an alternative this time. I have nothing against the guidebook but it's nice to be able to lay a map flat and survey the area, then fold it for the days walking.
I'm walking end to end again, north to south this time. I know there are maps - but I'm asking for recommendations from people who have bought the maps: which ones are the best? which ones are a waste of money? which ones are no longer available?
Speaking with other people who bought the map set, they said some maps were not needed because they only cover 5-10km of the track - is this correct?
So my overall question is, for someone with a fair idea of the track, what are the minimum and best maps needed?
