Buyer Beware September 13, 2004

In a nutshell, if you are buying this map of Hokkaido as your guide while driving, beware. My friend and I thought this map would be sufficient, but it's not. Some areas are questionable and do not provide enough detail. If you plan to rent a car and drive, then feel free to buy this map (since it's in English and will provide some help) but I strongly suggest that you also get a hold of a detailed Japanese map. Together, you should be able to get around.
That's basically what we did: we used the English map as a general guide and the Japanese map for the fine details. While you probably won't be a reader of Japanese, you can usually guess where you are and what route to take.
Good luck. Hokkaido is a beautiful place and driving around the island is easy, safe, and enjoyable.
