It depends. If, say, you just put 'creek' on the map, then no. But if it was Smellings Creek or the Grand Canyon, then yes.

Need to be capitalized:

States (New York)

Named landmarks (for example, Grand Canyon)

Cities/towns (Atlanta, GA)

Neighborhoods (The Gates)

Stores (Walmart)

Streets (Random Road, Name Street)

You get the idea.

Yes, names on maps are typically capitalized to make them stand out and be easier to read. This helps to differentiate them from other elements on the map and provides clarity for the reader.
