In the September edition of National Geographic Traveler's magazine there is an awesome section that identifies the Drives of a Lifetime. These 50 road trips are mostly in the US and Canada but also include a few in Europe and one in New Zealand. View the entire article here: http://traveler.nationalgeographic.com/drives

I thought it would be fun to plot out all 50 of these trips using the MyMaps feature in Google Maps. I've made them publicly available below. Feel free to view them, and even download them into your own version of MyMaps in Google Maps where you can store them for future trips.

Enjoy!
