| I have a set of the county maps. They're not as useful as I had
hoped, as they are blueprints showing every road in the county.
There is no information about which roads have heavy traffic or
hills. There were also one or two places where it seemed from the
map that two roads met, but in fact there was an impassable gap.
I'd use them as a reference when drawing maps, and for checking
street names, but I wouldn't use them as the primary map for route
planning.
