I highly suggest checking out Natural Atlas (https://naturalatlas.com/) by the same small team who made the CoTrex app (https://trails.colorado.gov/) for Colorado Parks and Wildflife. A really fantastic team building some absolutely gorgeous topographic basemaps from publicly available data. Hopefully they'll find time to add a slope angle overlay at some point. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

If you don't have any guide book that calls out water and re-supply opportunities, allow me to recommend the "AWOL Guide". I'd argue it's the best $20 you can spend if you're new to AT hiking. Also if you have a smartphone, you don't want to be without Guthook/FarOut. Source: 12 months ago
The good resource is Far Out Guides. Are you planning to self-shuttle or hire someone to drive you? It's best to meet your shuttle driver where you plan to finish and have them drive you to the start. That way you finish at your car. Source: over 1 year ago
Far Out app - Offline GPS phone app showing similar things as the AWOL guide, but also includes up to date comments from other hikers and using GPS will tell you mileage till the next water source, shelter, etc. Source: over 1 year ago
Looks very nice! Do you know https://faroutguides.com/ (formerly GutHook)? They have offline-friendly paid maps of a lot of the largest scenic trails in America. I hiked the Appalachian Trail last year and FarOut was standard kit. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
