Advisories about Google map display and about the Carbon River Road. In addition, some areas have multiple uses and require enlargling that areas, eg. Mowich Lake and Sunrise, to properly display the different types.

   Backcountry Camp, location of wilderness (backcountry), drive-in camps noted;

   Wonderland Trail Camp, location of wilderness camps on the Wonderland Trail, drive-in camps noted;

   Trailhead, locations trailheads along highways or at visitors centers;

    (1) Name and type of camp (catagory above).
