Be careful...you're heading for information overload! You'll get too much in those folders and will eventually find it to be too much of chore to plod through them. Take it from me...I know. :)
Sometimes it's best just to get a good atlas book and if you're traveling in the West, purchase the 'Benchmark' series of individual atlases for each state. Benchmark is much better than Delorme's, by the way.
Then scour a state you'll be heading for and highlight things you're interested in seeing. The 'Benchmark' books list many attractions on the maps themselves and zeros in so close you can even see the unpaved roads easily.
Another idea is...as you're reading about specific things you want to do...go to the atlas immediately and highlight the town. Then you can see at a glance that you have something important about that town in your folder. It'll save you a lot of time.
Of course, this won't work for some things. Try some of both ways - your folders and the atlases. See which is easiest for you to find information fast. Maybe a combination of both. Have fun!!
