Arizona State Maps Highways
USA street directory/road maps/atlas?
Hi, I’m from Australia and will be doing a road trip through California, Arizona and Nevada.
In Australia we have Melways, which is a state wide street directory, showing all roads, highways etc.
Am curious to know what the equivalent is in America, especially the 3 states I am visiting.
I’m hoping i can purchase just the street directory/road map/road atlas etc instead of purchasing a GPS system as quite honestly they drive me bonkers.
Thanks
The first answer is correct and there are nationwide maps/atlases available. Also, every fuel station, convenience store, and book store will sell local/state maps.

However, if you only need maps for 3 states consider asking for free highway maps from the state tourist offices:

Note that all of the states operate visitor centers/rest areas on the major highways – usually just inside the state’s border. The centers offer free maps.
