bisect the
Tahoe to Yosemite and Pacific Crest Trail
routes
across the
North Sierra.
MAP NOTE
Those squares breaking the maps up into grids are the Universal Transverse Mercator / Military Grid Reference System, otherwise commonly known as UTM.
What's important for our general reference purpose is that each side of a square is 1000 meters, or a Kilometer.
From my perspective that is 1093.6 yards or .62 of a mile.
Diagonal: 1414.22 meters, if my trig is correct. |
