The FLTC and several sporting goods stores throughout New York State sell maps printed by the FLTC. There are currently 50 FLT maps available that cover the entire FLT System. The FLTC maps have a scale of 1 inch to the mile. Maps have descriptions of the Trail and indicate mileages from point to point. The FLTC also has guide books describing the System. A Buyers Guide is available from the FLTC Service Center. County road maps are available for all counties in which the FLT System is located. A list may be obtained from the Service Center. County maps are helpful in finding backroads and they provide other useful information. They are usually more up-to-date than the standard topographic maps from the U.S. Geological Survey, but do not have contour lines. U.S. Geological Survey maps are available locally from sporting goods and book stores and from USGS Map Sales, Box 25286, Denver, CO 80225.

FLTC maps indicate county boundaries and topographic quadrangle map names to assist you in acquiring the correct county or topographic map. The FLT System is not indicated on any current USGS maps.

Normally, all trailheads and trail road crossings are marked with a one-foot square yellow sign with a green FLT logo. Some locations use various size and shape wooden board signs. Other locations are marked with 3-inch white or orange disks with the FLT logo.

The trail is marked with 2" x 6" vertical paint or plastic blazes on trees, poles, and posts along the entire route, except in the Catskill Forest Preserve where the Department of Environmental Conservation trail disks are used. Blazes are visible when traveling in either direction. Normally, when you are at one blaze, you can see the next blaze further down the Trail. On some roads and well-defined Trail the blazes may be a little farther apart. Trail that is not blazed on roads is usually noted on FLTC maps. Single blazes are used to identify the route. Double blazes, one above the other, are caution signs for you to look for a turn off from the general direction of travel or other situations for which you should be alert.

Other short side-trails, generally blazed in blue, are used for access to major trails, water sources, shelters, and campsites.
