Designed to be more a tourism brochure than a map.
Even after 30+ years living in Central Texas, I still get confused about the back roads of the Hill Country, and was excited to have a map to help me visualize and navigate the twists and turns of this beautiful area. Unfortunately, the map itself is (very) marred by 12 "post it" type inserts of images and text about places on the map (Wildseed Farms, Bandera, a fancy Inn, etc.) which OBSCURE THE MAP so you cannot see the roads and other features under those images and notes. Defeats the purpose of having a map, but OK if all you want is a tourism piece for ideas about what to do and where to go. I have not encountered this problem with other Nat. Geo maps. :(
Great Maps
Nat Geo makes really detailed and clear maps. Reminds me of the Ordnance Maps of Britain.
