Topo Maps
Great Basin National Park is covered by six topo maps in the U.S. 7.5 minute series. The Wheeler Peak and Kious Basin maps cover much of the high-elevation backcountry. The Windy Peak map covers a number of the most popular trails and well-developed trails. 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.
A single-sheet map covering all six topographic map areas at a scale of 1:48,000 is also available. Published by Earthwalk Press, this map is called "Hiking Map and Guide: Great Basin National Park."
These maps are sold at the Western National Parks Association's visitor center bookstores or purchase online through the USGS.
