Have the card bought for travel preparations and also compared with other offerings available to ADAC cards. With a scale of 1: 800,000, although it is still not extremely detailed map, however, beats all the others I have seen by a mile - so far a clear recommendation. The package (5 cards in a plastic bag), the print quality and paper quality are very good, the readability is made optimal for the scale. For the typical US-West Travel with National Parks and centers such as San Francisco, LA or Las Vegas you need when planning a trip indeed jump back and forth between the individual cards, but that can not be done differently in such a huge country.
