Open trail data

1,103 named places across 32 long trails

Explore passes, peaks, lakes, camps, shelters, towns, resupply stops, major junctions, termini and other places directly on each route. Every record names its sources, and every coordinate and elevation was measured at the place itself. Where we could not pin a place down, we leave the number out instead of guessing.

How to read the data

Mile markers are approximate, and the map and elevation profile mark them with ≈. Every coordinate and elevation here belongs to the named place itself: a published value, or a USGS 3DEP elevation read at a point we matched to the place and checked against the trail line. When a place has no single point we could pin down, like a wilderness, a region or a view, we leave its coordinates or elevation blank rather than estimate them. 532 of 1,103 places carry coordinates and 495 carry an elevation. Category arrays are intentionally multi-value, so a mountain pass with a viewpoint can appear under both junctions and peaks.

The workbook contained 1,117 source records. Thirteen duplicate role records were merged into the same named map entity while retaining every category and source URL, producing 1,103 distinct places.
