[edit] Vector-based map

Here is an SVG locator, in Wikipedia-standard colors, that can be used with Infobox protected area. The template has the capability to add a locator dot to this base image without modifying it. For articles (such as a long trail or parkway) where a dot is not relevant, one can download this image and modify it. If you do not have the capability to modify an SVG image, you can request a map.

[edit] Raster-based map

You can use this map to show where a park is located. Just put a small red dot on it. Right click on it and do a 'save as'.
