New Town List Format

Hello, Bikepackers,

I’m always looking for ways to improve my Planning Aids, in an attempt to make them better, easier to read, and have the information be more easily digested. The old Town List format is hard to read and very difficult to maintain.

I have been working on a new Town List format that is based off the Data Sheet. I believe the new format is easier to read, it also provides more information for the user, and is much easier to maintain.

I would love your feedback on which format you prefer. Keep reading to see the difference.

(Note the data in the two examples below, may not be accurate. It’s only for test proposes.)

Do you find this page valuable?

OLD Town List

NEW Town List

You read the new Town List just like a Data Sheet. The green highlighted line (blue highlighted area from the old) is your location/POI.

The following lines are the upcoming resupply options. From the column labelled “Distance to Next” to “Elevation -” and also the “Pavement” column, these are cumulative amounts from Durango in this case.

Just like the old format above, the new one will have a section like the one below for each resupply location/POI, showing cumulative distances to the upcoming resupply options.
