Thanks,

I thought that may be the case which is why I visit there for five to six weeks every summer. Two to three days of the Alps is like only getting one scoop of ice cream.
You'll find the Freytag & Berndt maps, available at most stores and gas stations, really excellent. I always use folded maps with a scale of 1:200 000 or better (to find the good roads...they are thin and grey in color), but this summer I picked up a spiral bound
F&B Österreich Supertouring atlas that is about 6"x 10". It doesn't give you an immediate overall picture, but it is compact and very detailed at a 1:150 000 scale.
I really hope you get to spend more time in the Alps. If you ever need any road suggestions, PM or e-mail me. I've been touring there eighteen years in a row over some 200+ passes.
