It has an informative disclaimer:

This map is hand drawn and intended as a rough guide only. The trail as marked on the map is only a rough representation that indicates where it mostly follows the land or where the route mostly follows the beach / sand flats / tidal shelves. The trail may vary between forest and beach within those sections; watch for buoys marking entrance to forest. Take recommended topographic maps, nautical charts and a compass for route finding.

On this web site we've generally used the names from that map in cases where different landmarks have different names:

• Calvin Falls, not Crawfish Falls
• Louie Lagoon, not Louis Lagoon

One exception is the name of the first beach campsite on the normal route; the first beach is actually called Third Beach.
