Hi
Very nice mapping application. Coincidentally, we are on our way from Seattle to Yosemite and I've found the information already useful! I like the function that locates the images (e.g. different waterfalls) on the map. I was hoping to be able to locate our camp site using the same function, but alas, it isn't implemented. I also found that the shaded relief layer overrided the orthophotos - perhaps a radio button would be better than check boxes. I noticed a bad DOCTYPE message (with Adobe SVG Viewer 6 - haven't tried it with 3) but I didn't investigate it further as the application worked well. I would also suggest neat lines around the legend "pop-up" and other information features (in the lower right) to help distinguish them from each other. I like the mouse-over display of various layers' data, though the prefix of "type" I thought could change with the layer type (e.g. "landcover:" instead of "type:"). Picky, picky.... Good work.
