Orienteering Map

Trail Map

The Trail Map on the right includes some labeling and symbols more appropriate for use by the general public. The Orienteering Map on the left has some greater detail that is important for the precise navigational needs of a competitive Orienteerer. Note that different colors are used to represent the same features as well. The Orienteering Map uses white to represent open, forested land, whereas the Trail Map uses light green for the same area. USGS topographic maps use this same convention, light green for forested areas.

Note the road and parking lot at the upper left corner of the Trail Map. These features are not seen on the Orienteering Map as they were constructed between production of the two maps. Our digital map drawing process makes updates such as this easy to do.
