You might want to consider purchasing online "The Truckers Mountain Directory". It comes in both East and West editions, depending where you're traveling. You'll see a lot more of the beautiful country if you get off the interstates. If you really want to explore one state in depth, get the Benchmark Atlas for that state. The series only is sold for the western states. They give so much detail on things to see and even public campgrounds are marked clearly. We love them.
Also, I wouldn't overconcern yourself about critter safety for the kids and dog. Millions of people travel with them. Just use common sense and you'll be just fine. Snakes like rocky areas so if hiking, stay on the trails. You'll probably never see a scorpion unless you have a black light and go outside at night hunting for them. :) Have a good trip!
