I'm trying to overlay maps for the American Discovery Trail - Illinois on the North Midwest Route from remote. But the Forest Preserve District of Will County isn't making this easy. They have a great website, but no downloadable maps that I can find. I need those because PDF usually have a better quality than a screen shot. Either way, they both have to be cropped and saved as a JPG, then uploaded to the cloud and overlaid in Google Earth.
This project has to move on. And so it will.
The best thing that I can come up with was putting down placemarks on the parks that Google Earth outlined along the trail. But that's not going to show me the location of a porta johns or water fountains so somebody can pin placemarks on those in the future.
This is the adventure and volunteerism log for Matthew Dexter Edmonds, aka "Treeman." Aside from Blogger comments, contact information is listed on Google+. And all places mentioned in this log are in the State of Ohio in United States of America unless otherwise stated. "The Wayne" = the Wayne NF.
Also, the motorhome mentioned is a 25ft, 1988 Itasca Sundancer, Model IF424RC with a Ford Econoline cutaway unless otherwise stated. It runs a 351 Windsor EFI V8 engine.
