Here, I uploaded a bunch of free maps for you. Wooo!
(I m trying something different here. Rather than writing another blog post that sticks to NPMaps updates, I m sharing some words on a topic that s always fascinated me. I figure there s got to be others that geek out the same way I do??) Welp, it s that time of year again: July is just around the corner, Continue reading Are all parks crowded in summer?

It turns out life gets busy when you get married, have a kid, and move multiple times. Who would have thought? So NPMaps has been on my backburner for some time now. Fortunately, in recent months, I’ve finally been able to tackle some changes I’ve been eyeing for years. I’ll highlight these changes below in Continue reading Improving NPMaps and keeping it free The post Improving NPMaps and keeping…
All of our lives have ebbs and flows, and therefore a passion-project website created by someone in his free time has them as well. Since I ve really committed to spending time on updating NPMaps, I ve moved multiple times, got married, and had a baby. So understandably my attention has waned a bit. But in recent Continue reading Whew. It s been a while. The post Whew. It s been a while. appeared…
I hope everyone is having a safe and healthy summer! With no opportunity to go on international trips, it s a great time for Americans to stay local and visit their nearby parks. (International visitors: we ll see you next year.) I ve been updating pages with new map upgrades, adding a few dozen within the last week, Continue reading Better and better The post Better and better appeared first on…
I realize this is my first posting in quite a while, but have no fear the site isn t dead! As life has gotten busy, I ve been more in maintenance mode, updating pages with current maps rather than creating new pages. I realize I m a little behind, as we have two new national parks since Continue reading A happy update The post A happy update appeared first on National Park Maps .
I hope everyone s summer has gotten off to a great start full of some grand national park adventures! Personally I ve paid visits to Canyonlands, Arches, and Rocky Mountain national parks over the last couple months, but sadly got snowed out of a recent trip to Colorado National Monument. So I ve been busy, but got a Continue reading More than 1,700 maps! The post More than 1,700 maps! appeared…
Since my last update, I ve added another five parks to this site. But before I introduce those pages as I traditionally do in these updates, I wanted to instead share with you a couple non-map pages I ve created. The first is Operation: Thank A Ranger. OK, maybe that s a silly name. Whatever. I created this new page Continue reading Operation: Thank A Ranger The post Operation: Thank A Ranger…
Hey, look at that! Just a week since my last update. I know web traffic will be picking up as we get close to summer, so I m trying to make a number of behind-the-scenes tweaks and fixes to make sure things are working smoothly. I ve added a few pages since the last update: Here s a Continue reading New parks and features The post New parks and features appeared first on National Park Maps .
In case you thought I ve been sitting around twiddling my thumbs here are eleven new pages I ve created over the last few weeks! That brings me up to 126 national park map pages created. I realize it s been a couple months since I ve written an update here, but I find that when I have some available Continue reading Eleven (11?!) new pages The post Eleven (11?!) new pages appeared first on…
Since my last update post about six weeks ago, I ve added a grand total of one new park page. That doesn t seem like much. But that s because I ve been busy hard at work adding over 200 new maps to parks I ve previously created pages for. That s right I don t just put up a page Continue reading Over 200 new maps!
