Customer Reviews

I reviewed the New Mexico Edition, but I own this one also
I have several of these of Arizona, Utah and New Mexico. Duplicates of each... one in the house for planning and study, one in the truck. Occasionally I rotate them so they don't wear out too quickly. I've given the Delormes top billing in my Desert Emergency Survival Manual, but you don't need desert and you don't need an emergency to need the Delorme Atlas for whereever you are going in a rural area.

If you spend a lot of time in the back country these maps are the best alternative, from my point of view. It's true the maps don't have labels on the back country cow trails another reviewer complained of. The fact is, neither do the roads. But it's often helpful when you come to the fork in a dirt two-track and they both wander off a few degrees off North, to be able to crack open the Delorme and discover the one on the left plays out just over that hill over there at a windmill. There's no excuse for needing labels these days. A compass and Delorme will allow you to locate yourself in most instances.

However, even the back woods purist ought to own a GPS. I've been wandering around the back woods longer than most readers of this have been alive. I rarely get lost, but I frequently don't know exactly where I am. Occasionally my old TrailBlazer saved me a lot of walking to get back to the truck. Once it saved my life in a snowstorm, I imagine.

For motor traveling you'll cover too much ground to allow the 7.5 minute maps to help much. You pass from one map to the next too quickly. When you are afoot a couple of them become useful. Meanwhile, I use Delorme as one of the ways to keep track of my wanderings. I recommend them wherever you are. And a GPS, as well.

Great guide
I have used the Arizona book for planning of hiking trips as well as car camping in the Mogollon Rim country. Easy to use, good quality, perfect to toss in the back seat of the car and go.

GREAT map for exploring Arizona
I used this map when exploring Arizona on two separate occasions. Delorme makes these maps for nearly all states in the US. If you're ever going to explore a state - USE THIS MAP by Delorme. It's well organized, provides information on parks, unique spots like waterfalls, historical sites, etc. You can also find obscure roads not normally seen on tourist maps. I bought the Delorme maps for Colorado, New York, and Virginia as well.
