Information


We design our cue sheets and maps to contain and present as much information as clearly as possible in as little space as compactly as possible. We want to give you all of the information you need without giving you too much and making them too cluttered.

Our intent is to have as many side streets named as possible, even the dirt ones, so that you can always tell that you are following the route correctly. For the sake of clarity we do not list every possible road name change. If we did there would be too much information on the cue sheets across the entire state and it would be too confusing to follow. In addition, we do not list gravel patches on the road because there are too many to list. You will have to watch out for them on your own.

All cue sheets and maps will also list the sunset time for each day, the main emergency support contact phone numbers ((877) TOUR-ILL [868-7455] and 911) and the direct cell phone numbers for all staff members.

Deciding what information to include and omit on the cue sheets and maps is incredibly difficult and subject to debate and invariably some participants feel that we provided too much information while others feel we didn't provide enough. If you have any feedback regarding our cue sheets or maps please let us know - we get our best feedback about the usefulness of our navigational systems directly from our participants actually using them on the road!
