I am seeking to get data or map that has campground in the United State but more specifically Colorado. They can be either on the internet, download data, or have maps that done by someone who did the mapping.

I am looking at the Cottonwood Lake campground which lacks the information for me to gather the information. This campground is part of the USDA US Forest Service.

  • Check out usgs.gov and let us know if you still don't find anything. I'd USGS is probably the best source of govt maps.

The Forest Service (USDA) maintains a WMS url of recreation sites on public lands here:

http://apps.fs.usda.gov/arcx/rest/services/EDW/EDW_RecreationOpportunities_01/MapServer

This dataset does not contain recreation sites on most BLM, National Park, or other lands other than those administered by the forest service, but it is a pretty great collection nonetheless.

  • you're going to have to define what outdated means to you. outdated = expired? outdated = link rot?

  • When you click on a hyperlink and it opens nothing...so the link might be outdated or moved.
