   Map Features and How to Use Them

This map displays individual recreation sites, campgrounds, scenic roads, and trails on public lands in the American West. Most sites will have detailed information, shown in a pop-up when you click its icon.

  • Icons: Each icon shows only the most-used type of recreation available at each site (e.g. if fishing and hiking are both features at a site, hiking will be shown as the icon). These icons don't change when filtering. When zoomed out, icons are grouped together and display the number of sites in the area. Zoom in or click this icon to see the individual sites.
  • Zoom: Hold the Ctrl or key and use the scroll wheel to zoom. You can also double-click to zoom in or use the on-screen buttons.

  • Site Information: Click an icon, and select "read more" (if information is available) to see a full list of amenities, contacts, and recommended maps that cover the area.

  • Search & Filter: Use the search bar to find an area you know the name of, or the filters to narrow down the kinds of sites you want displayed. Make sure you are zoomed out before you search or apply filters (the filters only search the currently visible area of the map). Currently active filters are highlighted in purple. When using the "More Filters" menu, make sure your selections are highlighted in purple and click "Show Results" to search.
  • Suggested Sites and Maps: When you activate a filter, a list of relevant sites in view will appear at the bottom of the page. This will update when you re-select filters or click "Show Results" in the filters menu.
