I am going to be hiking the Three Sisters Loop in Oregon in September and I am having a hard time finding a map of the trails in the area. Does anyone have any recommendations on where to find a map?

Mike, Here is the loop from my GPS with a few small side trips.

3 Sisters Loop

I joined trails.com to get the guide for the area and printed off the simple line map (not topo) that was part of the write up. That was the only map I took. The trails were extremely easy to follow.

You want this map:

http://www.amazon.com/Three-Sisters-Wilderness-Area-Map/dp/078341384X/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1342907551&sr=8-2&keywords=three+sisters+wilderness

Sadly, not on tear and water resistant paper, nor very colorful, but it's the best of that wilderness. I don't own it, but I've looked at it and will get it whenever I get around to doing exactly the same loop. Any Oregon REI and probably most sporting goods stores in general will stock it, though I realize you probably want it before you come down from BC.

Also, for general hiking info in Oregon, try portlandhikers.org. A bit Gorge-centric, but there are other trips that get discussed and reported.

Hope this helps you.

+1 to this one

3 Sisters Map

It has 1:27000 scale with 40' contours on one side and 1:83000 with 80' contours on the other side. It also has milages between trail intersections.

I ordered the Adventure Maps Central Oregon Hiking Trail Map. I recognized the map from the screen shot on the REI website. I have maps from them covering the biking trails around Bend and Hood River.
