Before you can adjust for it, you have to find the declination value in your trip area. Topo maps list it, but the value varies over time. So check the map's revision date or, better yet, consult the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)magnetic declination. Theway you a...
Secret maps require a special code, which we call ashareable link, for anyone besides the map owner to view the map. That link will look like this:https://caltopo.com/m/Q2F0K/14N6CNM9L5B1MS80, which is much longer and harder to share than the URL alone. Use secret when you have ...
I know that topographic maps and non-digital navigation can be intimidating, especially for those who never used them.
Note:If you use CalTopo for your pre-trip route planning and map printing, and GAIA GPS on your smartphone, then your printed maps will exactly match the maps and waypoints on your iPhone. That’s a big deal in the field—making everything a ton easier to follow and understand! Batterie...
Once you’ve chosen a trail or route, there are many apps and websites out on the market that can help you take your planning to the next level.Caltopo(launched by search and rescue experts) is one of the best resources for backcountry trail mapping, offering custom topographical maps tha...
Strava Routes comes with many great features on its route maps. Select the Global Heatmap to see which trails are popular with other runners, or use the Segment Explorer to compete against the running times of others and potentially grab your place on the leaderboard. The best thing about Str...

While we can round off gaps in capabilities with the right combination of talent on a team, gaps in virtues can cause a project to fail or, worse, negatively impact the business. The Greek philosopher Aristotle explained virtues as the individual’s habitual actions etched into one’s ...
How we bypass the lower bound:In all known linear garbling schemes, the operation the evaluator needs to perform, for example, which ciphertext to use, depends on wire-specific permute bits. Changing even one permute bit assigns a differrent operation to the output truth value 1. The lower...
Elevation gain is interesting. My Apple Watch will give me one number. MyGaia appwill give me another. And All Trails will give another. None will closely match. But All Trails will be closer to the Apple Watch thanGaia. For multiple day trips, I’ll print out custom CalTopo maps. Gre...
