Charles River Map Mileages

This week I remeasured all the trail segment mileages on the Charles River between the Museum of Science and the Eliot Bridge. I used a much more accurate GPS device than previously so the new figures are much better than before. I have also included Kilometers as well as miles.
I have adjusted some mileage reference points, which explains some discrepancies between old and new figures. For example, the reference point for the Boston end of the BU Bridge is now where the Baystate Rd. pedestrian overpass meets the river trail. These new reference points facilitate the adding up of segment mileages to give accurate loop mileages.
The map with the new mileages can be downloaded at www.funonfoot.com/boschrmap.html
