Default Re: Map software

I heard a talk by some folks who took a cross country trip in a Model T and used the bicycle route map for their trip. An interesting idea, but that can identify roads that are not for motor vehicles, so you need to be careful with that. I am an old school map guy, though. I am glad that Delorme still sells good map books.

I always liked AAA maps, but I agree they are not as good as they used to be. Exxon used to have great maps, too. I have no idea whether they even have them any more?

States give out their own maps. They often will have scenic and historic route and bicycle maps to promote tourism. You can probably get them to mail them to you if you contact the state tourism office or DOT.
