National Park Service Sites Waypoint File

 New collection
Manager: Deerhead & dave817 Last Update: 03/30/2009 Number of POIs: Coverage: USA Available Format(s): gpx, xls Download Link: dave817_NPS_POIs.zip
The 8,xxx points were given to me by Tim Smith of the NPS Tim_Smith@nps.gov <Tim_Smith@nps.gov> and all he ask was that he be sent corrects as they are found. HOWEVER, this list would not be possible without the help of Dave Hansen <dave817@msn.com> who is a site regular and is king of the Harley POI list. I also have the Highest Points in each State which I'll also send. Can't seem to attach the waypoint file? Any help attaching a file would be appreciate. |

I am not sure of the number of points your GPS will hold but you can filter the entire point file and just download the points you'll need for your trip. Have a great time. Robert |

Posted - 05 juin 2009 : 23:36:14 You can do any or all of the files inside the national forest poi file. The biggest file inside is the complete list. Some probably don't want all of the files loaded to their gps so they use just the ones you want. I have the headquarters, campgrounds and points of interest loaded and not the food services etc. Does that help?

Posted - 13 juil. 2008 : 01:51:34 The coordinates given for BLRI 6248 are incorrect and will place the user in a location on the opposite side of the parkway from the headquarters with no ready access to the parkway. The only option (once they figure out where to go) is to backtrack. These coordinates N35 33.935 W82 29.260 were taken in the Visitor Parking lot where the vistor can then access the headquarters for the Blue Ridge Parkway and the new Regional Destination Center. I know those coordinates are correct, I work at the headquarters. |

Jean, I would remove the Nat'l Park Service, from the index description and revise the Highest Pts Peaks by State because it is now a seperate index as you mentioned. |

Posted - 06 janv. 2008 : 16:03:31 Jean, Doe's resturants are famous in the South for their homestyle cooking and great catfish, steaks, etc. They used to be in Greenville MS only but they're expanding and if you like home style cooking they are THE place to eat. I will upload seperately the Doe's waypoints. http://www.doeseatplace.com/ I also reload the Highest Peaks By State for your single use topic filing. Robert |
