Digital Map

This map is the most user friendly map so far created. It requires Internet access which at times could be somewhat spotty along the trail, but a personal "Hot Spot" often solves the problem.

Be sure and check out all of the features in the Key on the Home Page:

1) Clicking on the solid red line will identify the “recommended” driving route to follow Boone Trace using existing paved roads.
2) Clicking on the dotted red line will identify the route of the original trace which often will go overland and has to be hiked or traveled on horseback.
3) Clicking on the icon for Visitor’s Centers will take you to a National or State Park’s web site and a short video of the park.
4) Clicking on the Streams icon will name the stream.
5) Clicking on the Historic Marker icon will show a photo of the marker, so you will know what you are looking for, and will give a brief text describing it.
6) Clicking on the POI icon will also show a photo of the site with a text.
7) The zoom feature can be very helpful allowing more detail of a certain area, or tricky turn, to clarify the route where necessary.
8) The Auto Locate feature will show your exact position relative to the route you are trying to follow on the map. Use this in conjunction with the zoom feature.
9) The Change Base Map feature will allow you to see the map as a regular streets and roads map, a satellite view or as a topographic map.

The map is very user friendly when you learn how to use all of the features and will allow you to hop in the car with your computer, I-phone or I-pad and easily drive the Trace showing you sites along the way. Enjoy.
