Yellowstone National Park Map - Folded

This Yellowstone National Park map from National Geographic is waterproof, tear resistant, and it carries a thousand miles of trail.

Details

Number 201 in the Trails Illustrated series, drawn with the local land management agencies rather than from public data alone.

Every marked route carries its mileage between junctions, and each trail summary gives the climb, the hours and the difficulty before you commit a day to it.

Contours run across the whole sheet with spot heights on summits, passes and lakes. Yellowstone Lake is contoured under the water too, hill shaded to read the depth.

In the field

The paper is half the point. It shrugs off rain and it does not tear, so a wet pocket and a windy overlook stop being events.

A full UTM grid means it works beside a GPS instead of against one, and hikers keep noting the same thing: it still works where the phone has no signal.

Campsites, boat ramps, marinas and the interpretive trails are all marked, and the one way park roads are shown as one way, which reviewers say other maps leave out.
