MapTech free topo map server

I have recently discovered that MapTech offers access to their Topo map server free. I have added links to my Geocaches and someone out there might like to add the links to their letterbox instructions on their web pages. You build the topo you want, add an Icon and then copy the link over to your clue page. COOL......

topozone.com offers the same thing but in addition, you can change
the actual view size of the map as well as the scale. One I link to
from my page is http://www.topozone.com/map.asp?
lat=34.21205007389477&lon=-118.9203221965448&symshow=n. I use their
site all the time. It's pretty awesome.
