As far as I have been able to find there are only two major State Atlas publishers: Benchmark and DeLorme. I own both for the State of Nevada (earlier editions of both). Superficially they look the same but if you use them to get off main roads, as I do to explore the back country and to look for good landsailing sites, one quickly realizes that Benchmark is superior. Benchmark has much better descriptions and differentiation of the quality of the smaller roads, even labeling some as 4WD roads. It has greater topographical detail,too. DeLorme is more widely available but it is worth the extra effort to find the Benchmark series.
Agree with the above review. I also have both and Benchmark is much more useful for offroad navigation. Section grids on the map are smaller in area so are more detailed and useful. Different types of roads are illustrated by different colors and difficulty.
I have several other states in the Benchmark series, and Nevada -- like those -- is superior to the Delorme Gazeteer. The characterization of roads is more accurate -- roads that are unpaved are shown as unpaved, and they accurately differentiate between 4x4 roads and better unpaved roads.
This atlas of roads and geographic features in the Silver State is easy to use, complete, and satisfies my interests as a weekend back roads enthusiast. From what I have experienced so far, and from personal knowledge of some obscure parts of the state, it is reliable and thorough. Compared to the other popular atlases in this format and size, it rates EXCELLENT. Easy to read, easy to use when orienting in the back country.
This book along with my GPS and other books on the ghost towns and history is exactly what I needed to get the most out of fthe areas where I live and to learn what took place there in the early 1900's. I drive a Jeep Wrangler and want to see and learn everything I can about the areas in Southern Nevada, so with this I can map out my route and plug the info into the GPS and away we go. Every road is percise and upto date and very informitive. Even if I was to get lost it would be an adventure, and I wouldn't stay lost for long. I highly reccoment this series of atlas for anyone who wants to get out and do some exploring of their own.
Some confusion in the description but this is the newest 4th edition and the copyright is 2015.....confusing since it is still 2014.I love the "black atlases" and use the Oregon, Washington and California ones when traveling. Nevada is a fascinating and mostly empty place and a good atlas like this is quite welcome.
A general atlas that showed many roads not available on most maps, even good backcountry driving books. I used this book often during my backcountry adventures in Nevada as it allowed me more options when in the middle of nowhere, a sense of comfort that there were other ways out and a much broader view of the areas I was driving in than specific trail maps.My only reason for not giving it five stars is that it does not do a good job of differentiating backroads by quality. While it enhanced my enjoyment of my trip, I did go to some places that I was lucky to have a very high clearance truck and a willingness to sacrifice the paint job on that truck. One road I tried to find what pretty much non-existent while others were quite overgrown or treacherous. No doubt one of the joys of driving in the backcountry is having little idea of what is coming next, but you certainly could get in a situation where you might have to do some serious backtracking because what looks like a legitimate road is not that at all.
My brother-in-law had one of these and it shows roads and trails and a lot of detail. A must for anybody who lives and drives in Nevada. Since we are close to California I was thinking of buying that one too.
