Minnesota Atlas and GazetteerUser Review: - Very detailed!What a great map book of Minnesota! Land of 10,000 lakes isn't accurate - it's more like over 12,000 and guess what? If I were to count each lake on each page, I bet nearly each lake is accounted for! I appreciate the details it goes into in terms of terrain including elevation, fishing spots, camping spots, non-paved roads, etc. With my outdoors proclivity mixed with a sense of adventure with my 4x4 truck, I plan to explore Minnesota as if I were one of the original voyageurs. I've not moved to MN yet, but cannot wait to do so in the very near future. The only thing I wish this book had was a more detailed map of the Twin Cities area. While they show every street, it would have been nice to have a break out section of it going to even greater detail. That would have saved me the money of having to purchase a seperate map book on the Twin Cities and keep it down to one book. However, it's still a great investment. You'll not get lost with this map book unless you are simply trying to get lost from civilization! User Review:  - Minnesota AtlasThe detail at which this (and other atlases) are produced is amazing. Small towns and cities have most if not all of their streets depicted, and this map picks up where state highway maps leave off. As a lifelong Minnesota resident, I was always impressed with the detail of our official state highway map, until I started driving some of the many small county roads, particularly in the western portions of the state. I soon learned that many, but certainly not all roads are on the official map. The Delorme atlas fills the gap. I've yet to drive a road that is not on this map, and for this reason alone, it will accompany me on any future journies. This map also includes drainage ditches, landing strips, water treatment centers, and many other useful features. This makes it useful to public works departments or other government agencies who might need to know such locations. The oveall size (it's the same size as Rand McNally atlases) allows it to fit beneath a car seat, and it is organized with a quick reference map-index on the back cover. A complete gazateer in inside. These atlases are essential for any traveler. User Review: - An excellent view of bodies of water.Here's a chance to see where bodies of water are located. Major and minor paved roads are drawn in as well, so you can tell how to get to a body of water. If you're looking for standing water, you'll love this resource.
