Editorial Reviews
Bob Masullo, Sacramento Bee, March 31, 2002
Landscape Maps featuring improved landform detail, the addition of hundreds of back roads...useful to anyone who drives the state.
The San Francisco Chronicle, December 14, 1997
"Landscape Maps™", so three-dimensional you feel every bump in the road...more listings and a complete and seemingly infallible index.
Kathy Rankin, Western Association of Map Librarians. March, 1998
The Landscape Maps™ are what set this publication apart. Legibility is excellent and the maps have a clean appearance.
Customer Reviews
Back roads
This is an excellent map book that makes the distinction between hard-pack secondary roads and paved secondary roads. I do a lot of California back roads on my motorcycle and found this to be the best of the map books.
I was a little dissapointed
I expected a little more backroad detail, info, & ease of use from (what I thought was) a Topo atlas. Amazon as usual had the best deal. Its a good CA map, but not the detailed topographical map like the ones you get from Ranger stations I had hoped for? I read on other 4x4 websites that this was a topo atlas, not so.
"Must Have" map for California Traveler
I purchased this atlas for motorcycle touring in California, and as a map collector, this is by far the best small-road atlas of California I have ever seen. The relief is excellent, they show a multitude of small roads, and could spend years going through this atlas looking for day trips on the bike. This shows roads much better than a topo map, and relief much better than a road map. It is the best blend of what a traveler needs for unfamiliar roads in California. I have to keep an eye out for updates when this one gets old!
