I think this cartoon map is an example of a
bad map for several reasons. There is no sense of scale or distance between things. There is no north arrow or legend. The map is very cluttered and there are no street names on this map.
This is a trail map of Winter Park mountain in Colorado. I think this is a
good map because it shows everything that is important to the user of the mountain. It lets the skier see the difficulty of each trail, where they can warm up if needed, get food, and get medical attention if needed.

Cartoon maps are almost never a good idea. And for it's inteded purpose, the skiing map is appropriate. Good job.
