Great Basin National Park is covered by six topo maps in the U.S.
7.5 minute series. The Wheeler
Peak and Kious
Spring maps cover much of the high-elevation, scenic
backcountry. The Windy
Peak map covers a number of the most popular trails,
however, these trails are also the most heavily used by day hikers.
The Lehman
Caves map covers mostly low-elevation areas outside the
park. The most remote, least-used backcountry areas are covered
by the Minerva
Canyon and Arch
Canyon maps.
Another topographic map, based on the USGS maps, is also available.
This single-sheet map covers all six topographic maps at a scale
of 1:48,000. Published by Earthwalk Press, this map is called "Hiking
Map and Guide; Great basin National Park".
The Great Basin Association sells both maps at the visitor center
bookstore.
