Here is a thread with some instructions and custom maps I did a few years ago.

The SLO file should work for you - remember to change the file extension after you download it, then you can look at it using google earth and upload it to your GPS, etc.

FYI - The pink line on the right side of the map is the wilderness boundary, stay to the west of that line.

When you download the SLO.pdf file to your computer you have to change the file extension otherwise it will not open.

Rename it to SLO.kmz and it will open with google earth. The Snowest forums do not recognize the .kmz file type so I had to change it to something else as a "dummy" so I could post them.

If that does not work I can email the kmz file it to you - drop me a PM with your email address.
