    Need maps? Free USGS topo maps

    So after wading thru the bad menus on the USGS site, I found a very good interactive map viewer.

    Explore, interact, and download USGS topographic maps free of charge from topoView.


    You can search by location to get close to whatever you're looking for, select your resolution like 24k for 1:24000, and it has many different years and map details of areas, depending if you're looking for a pure topo map or one that also has trailheads and trails and campsites marked.

    Well they have the local area USGS Topo Map that I have hanging on my wall - Eureka, California 1987.

    Since it has only part of it on land, and most of it covers the Pacific Ocean - should I have gotten it at a discount when I paid cash money for the map back in the day?

      Great resource. The map viewer has gotten alot easier to use over the last decade.

          Rule 3 -KEEP YOUR FINGER OFF THE TRIGGER UNTIL YOUR SIGHTS ARE ON THE TARGET

          Rule 4 -BE SURE OF YOUR TARGET AND WHAT IS BEYOND IT
