Vertical and Mileage-2003

Compiled by Cave Dog
 
The vertical and mileage estimates, although accounted to the foot or tenth of a mile, are still estimates with limited accuracy.  The measurement locations have been chosen to be easily recognizable localities approximately ten miles apart.  They actually range form 8.1 to 11.5 miles.  The mileage estimates are taken from the Green Mountain Club's Long Trail Guide:  Hiking Vermont's High Ridge: Vermont Hiking Trail Series:  Volume 1:  Twenty Fifth Edition.  The vertical measurements are taken from an approximation made using National Geographic's computer software powered by Topo!.
