KML Maps: Long Path Intersections with Roads
About Long Path Intersections with Roads ....
One of the challenges is to find places where the Long Path leaves the public roads. Using OpenStreetMap data I created a line intersection of the Long Path against public roads, then with some hand editing made sure only to include off-road trail sections when they meet public roads. Then I ran it against the state's reverse geocoding service to add street addresses so you can use it with your phone or car GPS.
Helpful Hint: While I suggest you look on blog for a downloadable PDF Map, you should be able to print or save this map by clicking the print button on the map above.
