Mike and all,
>There is also a "North Park" (on CO 14 West of Cameron Pass). Yep and Middle Park which is maybe replicated in other states and I’m sure there are these geographic parks in many mountain ranges. >I have always considered these "parks" to have no hard boundary (sort of like >a valley), and so was unsure of how to map them. Agree, this is the main challenge; it’s similar to the mountains themselves a bit where they actually do have an area but we typically only map the peak. However in the case of these geographic “parks” it may be easier to treat them like other natural features such as lakes and wooded areas, where we loosely trace their border. Unless people think we should rather try to determine a center point (i.e. import those GNIS points for ‘flats’)? >I don't know about "natural=grassland", by definition a "park" is "mostly >open", and that openness could be tundra, marsh or bare rock as well as >grassland. On the other hand I see "natural=park" creating confusion, as >people will start using it for recreation areas. Agree, in the case of South Park, it is mainly grassland; but yes I would think not all “parks” will be very consistent in vegetation, etc. I will continue to ponder and welcome any tagging suggestions that makes sense for these features; “natural=flat” seems like it would also create confusion as people might use it to tag any area that is relatively flat. =Russ
