Is there an easily obtained up to date track plan of train mountain?
The Train Mountain map is presently a work in progress, probably always will be as that is the nature of maps. The latest edition can be found on the Friends of Train Mountain website: http://www.friendstm.org/Atlas/Atlas.shtml
Tom,
Thanks for your help. Much appreciated.

There used to be another version on train mountain's website itself that was a lot more user friendly than the Atlas at Friends. Anyone have a copy of that? I don't seem to have saved any local copies. Even though it's out of date in regards to the friends track it was a much better map of the central area. (section 15 on friends)

Hah, found it on the wayback machine: http://web.archive.org/web/2010120101393...lLarge.jpg

Not totally up to date, but still seriously useful.
John Black of FTM has done a great deal of work updating the TM maps. Each Triennial package will include a new approximately 24 x 38 inch map map donated by Friends of Train Mountain. This map includes an updated insert of the central area.

I helped John with some GPS mapping and also correcting many inaccuracies by using satellite images from Google Earth. The Triennial maps are updated with corrections by using the GPS and satellite data. If you haven't looked at TM on Google Earth recently, you should do so. Google has updated the old images of the area with one taken in August 2011. It is extremely sharp compared to previous images. It is really fun to find all the places at TM now visible on Google Earth.
