Far easier to do a search on the internet and get more up to date info with links to the actual park and an aerial view to see what it really looks like.
At best, you are targeting dinosaurs who refuse to use better resources and they are a dying breed (actually in a littoral sense as it's mostly old folks not comfortable with technology).
I always have to chuckle when people write stuff like this. Especially the last sentence.
Did you ever consider there is still a good use for a paper source, like the lack of cell service?
We took a 21 day "on the fly" trip last summer. In other words we made no reservations, or even much campground research, in advance. We had no idea where we would be on any given day in advance. We just went.
There were many times out west when we had no cell service, and hence no internet, when looking for a place to camp. We used the little campground symbols on the spiral-bound road atlas we had more than once.
Something the OP is talking about with a greater amount of campground information would have been useful.
You can laugh at it but no service areas are becoming ever smaller (and yes, we've traveled out west) plus with just a bit of tech savvy, you can download areas ahead of time.
If you apply enough forethought to buy a map, you can download info about the area you are headed to.
So yes, the idea of needing paper is dinosaur thinking.
