Many smaller roads and intersections won't fit on a larger scale road map, or atlas, just not enough space on the page.
If you're doing the western states and you'll be in one state for a few months or returning year after year, I'd highly recommend purchasing the Benchmark series of individual state atlases. They do show the smaller dirt tracks and they're very easy to read. They give the public campgrounds, national forests, BLM lands, etc. Many full-timers travel with these, especially those with 4x4s or those that like to boondock.
