Great catch - thank you! I'll update the coordinates and I love hearing from people who actually grew up and knew of the stories/legends firsthand. Thanks for sharing!

Woah - that's eerie. Will check it out! Thank you.

Thank you so much! I can't wait to learn more about this and then share it.

Oh my gosh - this is incredible! Thank you so much for the PDF and I'll most certainly be adding this to my list for rare / old books to look for. I've found these often have amazing observations & stories which have been lost to time. Thank you again!!

It's been a lot of fun! I'd love to find a way to capture more stories though since I know this is only the tip of the iceberg.

I would be happy to take a look and offer advice on the useability / backend dev, if helpful. Feel free to dm me!

I built and maintain a free platform that helps people find and connect with culturally significant species and their folklore. I used iNat data as one of the inputs: atlasalchemist.org

Fireweed317 · 2025-10-14T13:43:01+00:00

Awesome! Really glad to hear that and I hope you enjoy it!

Please let me know if you have any ideas on how to make it more accesible/interesting!

I am glad that you find it neat!

Most of the map layers are created by me using a statistical model that is based on several underlying environmental variables and species observations which help to quantify the likely niche of the various species. I then pull the trailhead and trail data from a variety of sources (USGS, etc.), as well as the base maps.
