Benchmark atlas...where available

If you purchase from Amazon, make sure that you are getting the MOST current edition (which isn't necessarily so as they didn't have the most current on one of the three I am going to purchase). Also,
"frequently purchased together" doesn't appear on the most current UT map...only on one of the older versions. IF I am going to pay $20, I want current.

Directly through Benchmark I get free shipping with $50 purchase (I am getting three of them) and just a little sales tax (bummer).

I didn't see any twofers or threefers

Click on a Benchmark that you want, e.g., Utah. Then look down the page a bit at page left for "Frequently Bought Together". The package deal includes two or three atlases, the one that you clicked on and one or two additional ones. If the package contents aren't applicable, you can order separately, but if the package contains the Benchmarks you want, it's a good deal.

Buying from the Benchmark website is much more expensive than buying from Amazon.

I will order mine from there but couldn't get order part of website to work for me this a.m.

You can order right from Benchmark Maps.

I didn't see any twofers or threefers...but at least no shipping charges because I am buying three...a little sales tax.

If you're going to order from Amazon, check the page to see if two or three Benchmarks are offered in a "package deal". *IF* you can use the atlases included in the "twofer" or threefer", it's cheaper than ordering singly.

Okay, an order is going in on Monday:)

Yes, we purchased all ours from B&N too but I've seen them at REI and even bought a vinyl carrier for them there. They're great and much, much better than Delorme. For each state book, it will list the state in sections, then you can go to the pages of those sections which shows more zoomed in detail, including forest service roads, state and city parks, campgrounds and rv parks. We have them for most of the western states. They are big, but worth it.

Benchmark atlas books are awesome! We use them daily and unfortunately, they're only made for the western states. They give so much clear detail, including public parks, campgrounds, etc. but for us with a Jeep, the backroads are clearly marked and very easy to read. They can't compare to a normal state map. If you travel the western states they are well worth it. Also, if you purchase from Amazon sometimes you'll get free shipping depending what you're buying and how much.

They also don't compare to a mapping program or GPS. We use those tools, also, but only for setting up a route. Once we're at our destination we go by Benchmark because you can get the 'whole picture' of an area. We started off using Delorme's atlas books but Benchmark is so much better. We have them for all the western states.

OP: You asked about getting the AZ one in southern Utah. I have seen them in national park bookstores/gift shops and also in local camping/hiking stores. Sometimes if you're close to a bordering state they'll carry both states but it's not a given. Best to pre-order them.

Never heard of these maps before.

Can you tell us how they are better than a State provided map?

I am interested.
