A few years ago there was a resource here that showed the towns of the route, image of the height profile, bridges, the facilities in each town, etc.

I can't seem to find the resource any more. Is there anyone who knows where I can get a copy of those pages/images?

I was dumb enough to leave my guide book behind in an alburgue for anyone else who high want it.

Many thanks.

Hi Lance
You’ll get a lot of the type of information you’re looking for (relating to lots of camino routes too) by opening gronze and doing some drilling into it. (Route, stages, distances, images, height profiles and lots more ). - note: when you are viewing the individual stage maps you’ll see a msg: ‘ver perfil de la etapa’ click this msg to see profile map.

Also if you are looking at the accommodation- you can click and quite often you’ll see pictures of the place. Also has direct booking facility
- and it’s free and regularly updated.

Buen camino

Brierley is certainly one good resource for this sort of information (although I know a number of people who seem to think he underestimates some of the elevation changes ). There are now some other guidebooks who provide similar information. And websites (like Gronze mentioned above). And apps. There's a lot of choice.

It may also be worth pointing our that, if it is primarily the maps/elevations that you are interested in, they also publish "Maps only" versions of the Brierley guides with just the maps and albergue listings. These are also available as e-books if you want to save the space/weight.
 
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

€46,-
This is what you are looking for? I bought it for $10 as a Google Play download, about 26 MB.

I feel you pain. I lost my guidebook, two years ago, somewhere between my last night in the alburgue and the airport home to the USA. I wrote my notes, contact info for folks I had met, etc, in that book. My email address was prominently on the cover but never a word.
