Those walking the JMT in August will arrive in Lone Pine at the end of that month, when many Americans have finished their annual holidays and pressure on motel rooms is not as intense. There are several motels to choose from in Lone Pine. The Best Western is ½ mile south of town, and the Dow Villa Motel (PO Box 205, 310 South Main Street, Lone Pine, CA 93545. Reservations 800-824-9317. dowvilla@qnet.com) is recommended.

Maps

There are several maps that cover all or part of the John Muir Trail. The United States Forestry Service produces a number of ‘Wilderness Maps’ which are useful, covering the JMT outside Yosemite. The John Muir/Sequoia–Kings Canyon Wilderness Map and the Ansel Adams Wilderness Map are the most useful sheets.

There are several maps available locally which cover the Yosemite National Park. The Inyo National Forest Map is another possible map, and covers the whole area through which the Trail passes. These maps are easily obtainable in the US, but less so outside the country.
