Map legends and/or tutorials

Post by BillCarlinOFR07 »

For the map found here:
http://hikearizona.com/map.php?X=49
Where is the explanation for the colors of the section markers? If they correspond to temperature, is there a way to retrieve historical data for a projected plot for November?
When stuff happens, happen back!

My guess is you are looking too deep for meaning. Sometimes colors are just colors. Looks like Joe color coded the sections in the window on the left and then used the corresponding colors on the trail sections to tie them together.

The day Joe found the color palette was like the day a kindergartner gets a box of crayons.

Alan speaks the truth, HAZ & Crayola go way back.

this example shows the color association with the left window list

in the example above if you click on the description link it takes you to the description page where historical weather is available

please note the reading is based on the trailhead elevation so you can estimate the range
