    The Baron of the Pines

    I was looking at all the mentions of Mulliner and Bacon and Fagan on the site and didn't see a reference to this "fanciful? or semi-factual" 1835 article about Fagan. It's interesting that they say he was hung alive, not by the neck, to dangle for days.....You can blow up the JPG to read...

    Welcome to the new Boyd's Maps Forum!

    Thank you. That answers my question. I did just mean "Your" various old maps when using your program. I'll look into downloading one of your maps per your suggestion, in case I can import into the tracker I use. Gaia GPS

    Is it possible to load/combine gpx or kmz files onto your mobile or computer program to see the track on one of your old maps ?

    I just installed on my Iphone with Boyds instructions. When trying to use the GPS button to show my location, it says permission denied ?

    Thank you for the update. I tried in the late Fall but a bit of health and overgrowth problems stopped me. I'll give it another try now and check GPS coordinates first as you recommend.

    Welcome to the new Boyd's Maps Forum!

    this shows my ignorance of and inattention to your site. I'm sorry to waste your time, but very glad for your reply. I did not pay attention to the headings of each map section and the fact that Your Own maps are all only under your heading (of course, as they should be). When I saw the heading...

    Welcome to the new Boyd's Maps Forum!

    Hello Boyd, Again, thank you for your work to provide this service to us. I have a question about what I just found on my GAIA map. I've attached what they call their USGS (caltopo) and your USGS 24K and 100K. I was surprised to see the GAIA with more detail and in particular that your 100k has...

    Thank You. my googling of Buttonwood Hill only came up with the camp at that location and also pinned it at further up that road. I learned a lot from Boyds maps today, and had been leaning towards looking there, but wondered if the 60' highest elevation way up the road might not better fit the...

    Are you comfortable confirming how to access and walk this trail? I searched Buttonwood Hill and Mordecai swamp and saw the swamp and buttonwood camp to the east of Batsto, but using all the map versions on this site, I did not see a trail ? My wife and I would enjoy this walk I'm sure. Thanks...
