We have a book of scenic drives in Maine. To start, I looked through each drive and figured out which maps I would cover during the drive. I plotted the routes that covered the most maps and then use the "Caches along a route" feature to find potential caches along the way.

We like doing loops that will take us through one set of maps as we drive away from home and then through another set as we return. We try to plan two caches for each map: one that is either difficult or requires a long walk and another that is quick. We try our best to get both but if for some reason the longer one doesn't work out (DNF, running out of daylight, etc.) we can fall back on the quick cache.

To keep track of what we have completed we just keep the atlas in the car and highlight the squares on the map that is at the beginning of the book.

We aren't super hardcore about getting as many maps as possible, so we try to tie the maps in to things. For example, we had never gone to Red's Eats and wanted to a few weeks ago, so we planned to cover that map and the maps along the way. Or, we had a Geocoin that wanted to go to Canada so we picked a scenic route from our book that would get us there (we took Route 6 to Vanceboro, then crossed in to NB, very pretty!) and did the maps along the way.
