Those that you can find are on sites like MapMyRun and they're really not that helpful. The North Face iPhome Trailhead app has some good user generated maps of Stillwell. Stillwell Woods itself is not well marked and after two years running it I still get lost from time to time. You can't really get in trouble though, eventually you'll come out somewhere.<br /><br />The Rob's Run course was well marked. They use blue spray paint on the trails and that will probably last a few days. I ran the Xterra 6K at Stillwell last March and was concerned about losing my way but I found the course easy to follow. <br /><br />My best advice for you when you run Stillwell is to bring a compass. There are many trails that wrap around and can disorient you (especially when there's no sun to help directionally).
