Its not fair, but there is a much better solution in the western states for a gazateer -- If you ever want to see a really fun atlas -- look at those produced by Benchmark Maps.
I have found DeLorme to be increasingly inaccurate, which can be a real drag if you left home without a GPS and you are deep in the forests of Pennsylvania or some similar place.
For my take on Benchmark, <a href = "http://www.roadtripamerica.com/maps/maps.htm#state">click here</a>.
I was once 'deep in the forests of PA' without a GPS (last April) and had to use the Delorme to find my way over Mountain Rd. near New Tripoli when coming from Jim Thorpe. The map direction was accurate, but I didn't have an indication that it would be the type of road where locals fear to tread!
Benchmark looks good...hope they do some for the Northeast.
I used to really like and promote DeLorme until one August day in the Bitterroot Range in Idaho -- when the maps led me to take an un-advised road which eventually caused me to take the Phoenix One down a former ski run hill... (Now I can't blame the maps entirely -- I was still steering the truck, but...)
Yes, I like the "landscape" quality of the Benchmark maps.
