    Pachaug Trail CT- got a decent map?

    I used to spend many a day in the summers as a kid camping at Mt.Misery campground. I'd like to go out and hit the Pachaug Trail and stay at a shelter or two. Man I am having just a terrible time finding a decent map of the trails, something with each shelter labeled, trailheads, etc. Everything I find is either a PDF of the western part of the trail with no shelters marked or an interactive map that also does not mark the shelters.

    Anyone got a decent source for a complete map with shelters marked? Sorry if this is a dumb question but I am legit trying to find it lol

    Funny you should mention this. Great Swamp Press makes some good maps of the RI/CT border region and has a map of the Pachaug Forest. They just announced they are closing shop: Here is their website. I've gotten their maps at URE Outfitters and the Cranston REI. I also need to get a copy of their Pachaug map. Race you for it!

    Also, here's a new patch challenge taking place in Pachaug - they have some links to decent shelter maps there.

    I have hiked there and saw there were many more trails than were on the trail map.

    I may swing by there tomorrow. I'll let you know if I spy any. BTW, I just camped and filmed on these trails a few weeks ago so this may be of interest.

    I've watched that video, it was very helpful. Save yourself a ride to REI (all the way to Cranston Lol) just yet, my wife has an appointment this morning right near there and she is going to stop in and check. If they have them I'll grab 2 and get it to you.
