This version of the guidebook is just a little bit nicer than what’s available on Amazon.com. The paper is a little bit better, so the photographs look better. It’s not a radical difference, but some people do notice. Buying the guidebook here, directly from the thru-hike website, also helps us a lot because we get a significantly bigger “cut” from the sale than when we make a sale on Amazon. Every little bit helps!
