Editorial team
Content is produced by an AI-augmented editorial team: research and drafting are AI-assisted and reviewed by the named desk editor against primary public records (USGS GNIS, NPS, USFS, and state-park sources) before publication. We describe places from documented facts and cited sources, not personal visits.
