Arizona Atlas and Gazeteer. I find this invaluable for navigating and planning trips in Arizona.

New Mexico Atlas and Gazeteer. Excellent resource for planning trips in New Mexico

This excellent topographic mapping program has ALL the USGS topographic maps in Arizona. I use this program extensively. It allows you to incorporate your GPS waypoints and to add symbols and text to the map. Keep a database of your Coues deer sightings! I have used several other topo mapping programs, and this one is the best. Not only does it provide the 7.5 min quads, but it has 5 other scales of maps too. So you can print an overview of the hunting area, and then print more detailed topo maps. It allows you to scan and print seamless topos. And it has a shading function which can make it much easier to see the landscape features. Highly recommended.

Outstanding topographic mapping product covering New Mexico. See my comments under the Arizona topo program.

Print out your topo maps on this waterproof, tear resistant paper. I have used it and it is great. You can fold up your maps and use them in the rain without smudging.

Arizona Place Names by Will Croft Barnes

"A somewhat eclectic, but unfailingly delightful, compilation of facts, folklore, humor, and personal opinion that has achieved the status of southwestern classic. . . . Fifty years after its first publication, it still ranks among the most important books published on the state." —Journal of Arizona History

"This paperback reissue of the original edition (1935) with a new foreward by Bernard L. Fontana will take another generation of readers on a delightful and exciting trip around Arizona stopping at such places as Wickyty-Wizz Canyon, Total Wreck, Christmas, Skull Valley, Freezeout Creek and Poker Mountain. Barnes' work remains an important contribution to Arizona history and literature. The enthusiasm of this pioneer soldier, rancher, and state legislator for his adopted state is contagious, as the new reader will soon discover." —Books of the Southwest

"Later editions have adopted the title and format, but the original Barnes has never been surpassed. 'Place Names' is a modest description, for the listings unleash a flow of history, folklore, geography, and etymology. And yes, even humor and romance. . . . If there is one indispensable Arizona book, Barnes's Arizona Place Names is it. Every man, woman, and child who sets foot in the Grand Canyon State should have this book at hand" —Arizona Highways

"Better buy a couple of copies, one for the car and one for whatever room you do your reading in." —Arizona Daily Star
