Road & Recreation Atlas: Alaska

The most detailed and accurate atlas available for Alaska — 144 pages of large-scale landscape maps, public land boundaries, and comprehensive recreation guide. 11" x 16" format.

The National Geographic Benchmark Alaska Road & Recreation Atlas is the definitive planning and navigation resource for the Last Frontier. Benchmark field-checkers drove thousands of miles to verify data, making this the most reliable atlas available for Alaska road travel and outdoor recreation. Large-scale landscape maps vividly display Alaska's vast terrain — roads, waterways, landforms, and outdoor landmarks — at two scales (1:95,000 and 1:317,000) for both regional overview and detailed navigation.

Why it works:

Alaska's road network is sparse relative to its size, and navigating between the road system, remote airstrips, river corridors, and public land boundaries requires the most accurate mapping available. Benchmark's field-verified data — verified by driving thousands of miles across the state — makes this atlas the trusted resource for Alaska hunters, anglers, and backcountry travelers who need to know exactly what's on the ground.

Ideal for: Hunters, anglers, hikers, backpackers, road trippers, and outdoor enthusiasts planning trips anywhere in Alaska.
