I have used and enjoyed this Michigan atlas countless times for traveling back roads in pursuit of my many outdoor hobbies, which include birdwatching, fishing, camping, and hunting. Looking for alternate routes to avoid heavy traffic, or just to discover someplace new, it's been invaluable to me. However, it cannot replace a detailed county map, but who has all those? Another possible drawback is the lack of Forest Route numbers in the state's national forests. You will need to buy the appropriate National Forest map if you wish to wander there. Use this atlas together with a Michigan Department of Transportation map (free from the state) and you can go just about anywhere in the Great Lake State.
Living "up North", I-75 is basically the only interstate running up the middle of the state. This book has been a huge help to us in helping us to avoid heavy travel periods, traffic accidents and tie-ups and even road closures. This book has gotten us off the beaten path more than a few times and we've also discovered some of the pretty little places our state has to offer. We highly recommend it and are always glad we have it in the car, when needed.
the delorme gazeteer series is perfect for people who want to wander off of the main roads. my wife and i like to point the car as whim sees fit. the map has backroads with enought detail to let us find our wish and our way back. essential for indirect travel. also has marked 4wd trails to unknown wonders, as well as a smattering of known wonders (waterfalls, museums, fishing, camping...). not a replacement for usgs quads, but will make the travel to your hike more fun. if you are interested in exploring a state, or some portion thereof, the gazetteer series is an invaluable tool.
We previously owned the Minnesota version of this Atlas. Recently we bought the Michigan version and found it very helpful on a trip to the UP of Michigan. The great detail in the maps helps find the small things the state maps leave out.
Although I have lived in Nebraska for four decades, there's one spot I really love to vacation, and that is in the UP in general and the Keweenaw Peninsula in particular. Five years ago when we were planning a trip to the upper Keweenaw, we bought the Michigan Atlas and Gazeteer. It proved invaluable in our explorations. Every road, including some that are little more than rocky trails, is shown, as are many topographical features, including lakes, ponds (even the smallest), hills, swamps, and the like. Although we had been to the Keweenaw several times before, this atlas helped us get around far better than we had on previous visits.
Find your way in Michigan when your GPS can't. This atlas is indispensable in the upper peninsula of Michigan and other areas where remote and rural roads don't show up with technology. Speaking of technology, no good prepper should be without a good map of their surrounding region. The best part about this Atlas is that it requires no batteries. Get one for your car and one for your bug out bag and check it off your list.
I didn't want to get stuck in the UP in the MASSIVE amount of snowfall they get in July, so I picked this up so I'd know which of the clearly labeled paved roads I needed to stay on to get from Newberry to Paradise and back again. I happen to love maps, so this is actually a great addition to my stable of mapping software and navigation devices. It's much easier to just look on a map and plan a route with lots of stops on it than trying to let software (that doesn't REALLY know what it's doing, especially during construction season) do the work. I've spent 30 years navigating Michigan, I've had tons of maps, and I'm very happy that this is in my car, just in case.
I purchased this atlas and gazetteer for my father in law for a Christmas gift. I am very happy with the size of the atlas as well as the size of the font and images. He is going to be thrilled. Thank you so much!
