It’s unique to Benchmark Maps to have this intuitive layout – we do a front-to-back progression that begins with a national perspective, moving into a regional view, finishing with a very localized landscape. In other words, we organize our maps “outside-in”.
Legend
Provided on the inside cover of the atlas for easy referencing, our legend depicts helpful symbols for each section of the atlas (e.g., Recreation, Landscape). English/Metric conversion tables are available for additional guidance.
Table of Contents
Each of our color-coded tabs for Regional Maps, Recreation Guides, Landscape maps, Metro Area Maps, and our Index can be found here, providing ease in locating precisely what you are looking for quickly.
U.S. Highways
Our highway systems are very unique in that our readers are given an elevation perspective of the entire country. We highlight the state and provide mileage from the capital city to other cities across North America (U.S., Canada, Mexico).
Regional Highway System
Our Regional Highway System provides interstate detail in a particular region of the country (e.g., Southwest, Pacific Northwest, Mountain West, etc.) The unique thing about it is that includes all of the county seats with populations. We have the staple elements of a good atlas (US/STATE highway systems) but what we’ve done extra is we’ve squeezed in an interstate regional highway system. “What’s the most interesting way for me to get across Nevada to my destination in California.” Or “Can I swing by a new national park on my way home.”
