DeLorme New Mexico Atlas & Gazeteer
46 detailed topographic maps of the entire state, this new edition with GPS grids and 14 pages of street maps covering Albuquerque, Clovis, Farmington, Las Cruces, Roswell, and Santa Fe.  The maps show elevation contours, roads, railroads, major powerlines, woodlands, lakes, quarries, campgrounds, publicly-owned land, and much more.   Relief shading makes the mountains and other landforms really stand out.  The gazetteer sections give information on museums and other attractions, campgrounds, fishing, historic sites, hunting, recreation areas, scenic drives, ski areas, trails, tribal lands, unique natural features, whitewater recreation, and wildlife viewing.

The scale of each map is 1:300,000 (1 inch = about 4.7 miles) and the contour interval is 300 feet.  City map scale is 1:29,000 (1 inch = 0.46 miles).

Benchmark Maps  New Mexico Road & Recreation Atlas
Excellent atlas divided into three major sections.  Two of them cover the whole state in detail in twelve double-page spreads.  The maps in the two sections are the same scale, and show the same features: relief shading to show the form of the mountains, roads, towns, recreation sites—everything you expect from a good road map and more: even GPS grids. The difference is that the first of these sections emphasizes the landscape, and is colored to vividly depict the elevation levels of the state (see sample above right).  In contrast, the second section is colored to show land ownership: the approximate boundaries of lands managed by the state, the federal government, or by Native American tribes.  

The third major section is devoted to comprehensive city maps.  Albuquerque and vicinity (including Rio Rancho) is presented on fifteen pages of detailed street maps.  Four and a half pages are given to Santa Fe (the half page is a detail map of the downtown area); Roswell is covered in four pages, and Las Cruces in five.  Each of these city sections has its own street index, too.

Besides the three major sections, there are some bonus features: a two page physical road map of the contiguous United States showing interstate, US, southern Canadian, and northern Mexican highways; a two-page overview map of New Mexico showing all major and some minor roads; and four pages of charts listing recreational facilities, providing such information as contact numbers, elevations, facilities available, and activities permitted.

Scale of landscape and public lands maps, 1:525,000 (1 inch = about 8.3 miles); scale of city maps vary, most are 1:28,000 (1 inch = about 0.44 mile).

North Star Mapping Road Map of Navajo & Hopi Nations
Detailed road map printed on two sides, revised and now printed in multiple colors.  One side shows the entire region of the Navajo and Hopi Reservations, and also some of the adjacent reservations, such as the Zuni and Ute Mountain.  The main advantage of this map over state road maps is that it shows some dirt roads not included elsewhere, and also shows the location of trading posts and chapter houses.

AAA Indian Country Guide Map: Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Utah (Explore! series)
 Wonderful road map, printed on two sides, described by the publisher as: "A map plus information on National Parks and Monuments, recreation areas, campgrounds, tribal lands and other points of interest."

This newly revised edition features expanded map coverage: It now goes as far west as the Utah border, and even a bit farther west in part of northern Arizona, including Bullhead City plus Laughlin on the Nevada side of the state line, and Needles on the California side; it extends as far north as Salina and Green River, Utah; east to Colorado Springs and Walsenburg, Colorado, and Cimmaron and Las Vegas, New Mexico; and south to Prescott, Arizona.  Includes the Hualapai, Havasupai, Navajo, Hopi, Zuni, Jicarilla Apache, and many other smaller reservations.  Landforms are shown with generalized relief shading; roads are clearly shown, with point-to-point mileages to the nearest tenth of a mile, even for dirt roads.  Also shows railroads, National Parks, National Monuments, State Parks, National Forests, National Recreation Areas, public and privately operated campgrounds, picnic areas, trading posts, mines, ruins, petroglyphs, ranger stations, and more.  (See sample above, deliberately fuzzy to protect the publisher's copyright.)

The main map is on one side. On the reverse side is an extensive travel guide, describing points of interest keyed to the maps, a list of annual events, recreation, shopping and wilderness trips.  Most importantly, there is a description of each tribe and their land.  Numerous color photos give you a taste of what the area has to offer.  The map is fully indexed.

This map has long had a well-deserved reputation as an excellent map, and with this new edition, the publishers have made it even better.  If I had to use only one map for exploring this region, this would be the one I'd choose.

Scale, about 1:823,680 (1 inch = about 13 miles).  Size:  About 45½ x 26 inches.  Folded.  Paper.

Time Traveler Maps The Colorado Plateau: Map & Guide to Public Lands on the Colorado Plateau & its Borderlands
Excellent detailed road and display map printed on two sides.  The map itself is on one side and is decorative, strikingly detailed, and functional.  The Colorado Plateau is, in general, the highlands of southeastern Utah, Colorado west of the higher Rocky Mountains, northwestern New Mexico, and northern Arizona.  Accordingly, the map shows all of Utah, southwestern Wyoming, western Colorado, northwestern New Mexico, and northern Arizona east of Lake Mead.  Finely detailed shaded relief shows the form of the mountain ranges and canyons, a green tint emphasizes the higher mountains, and a white tint marks the highest peaks.  Major and minor roads are clearly distinguished (though no mileages are provided).  The maps also shows National Parks and Monuments, Historic Sites, Tribal Parks, and National Forests; public campgrounds and state parks; and numerous cities and towns.

On the reverse side is a travel guide with separate charts listing the facilities and activities of the parks, monuments, and recreation areas for each major state shown: Utah, Colorado, Arizona, and New Mexico, including a few places not actually on the Plateau.  This side is also richly decorated with many small color photos and paintings featuring area sites, culture, and plant and animal life.  There is also general information about visiting the region, and a list of contact phone numbers and websites for further information.

Scale, 1:1,250,000 (1 inch = about 20 miles).  Size: about 26 x 36 inches.  Folded.  Paper.
