a search for 'Golden Spike' yields nada. I was about to draw a boundary=national_park[3] around it with a name tag, so it would be a little easier to find. But it turns out the NPS has a boundary shapefile for all National Parks, Historic Sites, Rivers, Parkways, Lakeshores and more than a dozen other categories[4].
I wouldn't object to importing park boundaries. But, I find boundary=national_park odd, relative to the rest of boundary=*. For truly large parks, it makes some sense. A related issue is tagging the polygon rather than the boundary, and the landuse=conservation/leisure=recreatation_ground tagging (not really right for parks, but actually the combination describes the NPS mission). So I have a mild preference (not backed up by volunteering) to make the park boundary/polygon tagging a bit more baked before importing.
