This does seem like a good trip for the Garmin GPS. I have a good one with preloaded topo, so I will use both that and paper topo per your suggestion.
Steve and Joseph, yay, that must be my problem -- I am using Google Chrome. I will try with IE and Firefox!!!!
YES-USING PRINT PREVIEW ON FIREFOX SOLVES MY PROBLEM!!! I have now taped together a couple different sections and have the whole route.
As I look at my new, pasted-together, big map, I am wondering if perhaps I should do the big loop rather than an out and back -- that is, Cottonwood Lakes TH-Cottonwood Pass-Lower Soldier Lake-Miter Basin/Sky Blue Lake-Lower Soldier Lake-New Army Pass-Langley-Old Army Pass-Cottonwood Lakes-Cottonwood Lakes TH. Hmmmm.
Also, I wonder if I can use my existing Cottonwood Lakes TH permits if I do the grand loop, or if I need to cancel and get Cottonwood Pass TH permits instead? Looks to me like I can do the whole grand loop starting and ending from Cottonwood Lakes TH, but does Inyfo FS care if you start at Cottonwood Lakes TH, but cross over to Cottonwood Pass, and then come back to Cottonwood Lakes TH via Cottonwood Lakes?
