Um, please don’t attempt to climb Longs Peak with just this! This hand-drawn Longs Peak trail map (200 kb) shows a very general overview of the trails in the Longs Peak region of Rocky Mountain National Park. Get here early on summer weekends before parking fills! This Wild Basin trail map (350 kb) shows the distance and elevation game to popular locations such as Ouzel Falls, Bluebird Lake, and Sandbeach Lake. Also nice are the included trail descriptions and time estimates. Here’s a Kawuneeche trail map and guide (1.0 mb), showing the locations and distance of many of the relatively quiet west side trails. These trails will be less crowded than the ones near Bear Lake. The Fall River trail map (450 kb) includes the Old Fall River Road and trails accessed from Upper Beaver Meadows, Deer Ridge, and more. The Bear Lake trail map (400 kb) zooms in on the Bear Lake Road and shows mileages and elevation gain to popular destinations from the Bear Lake area: Glacier Gorge, Emerald Lake, Flattop Mountain, etc. The free maps below are good for general planning, but won’t be too helpful once you’re on the actual trail due to lack of detail. I haven’t yet found any free Rocky Mountain trail maps good enough for navigation or route planning, so the National Geographic Trails Illustrated map is your best bet for hiking since it shows topographic lines, trail mileages, and backcountry campsites.
