Yosemite National Park

This map of Yosemite National Park was created using topographic data courtesy of USGS and vector data from the National Parks Service (NPS) and aimed to resemble the official NPS map as closely as possible.  The map includes symbols, labels, and icons that represent different features throughout the park.  The names and meanings of specific icons, roads, and trails can be found in the legend in the bottom left. Forests, wilderness areas, towns, lakes, campgrounds, and roads outside of the park are included to contextualize the location of the park. The map includes prominent points of interest including ranger stations, dining areas, campgrounds, gas stations, and picnic areas, visitor centers, and entrances. The road network inside the park consisting of paved and unpaved roads is included to show the routes used to get to specific destinations.  Prominent physical features are also included, with their label size indicating their relative size and importance. The label orientation of physical features follows the orientation of the actual features in the park. Examples include mountain ranges, valleys, lakes, rivers, and meadows.  Elevation points are also included throughout the map. Generic hiking trails are found on the map, as well as the Pacific Crest and John Muir trails, and their specific symbology can be found in the legend. Overall, this map provides a snapshot of the important features in Yosemite National Park.
