Here's a really useful site that was recommended by a mailing list in
one of my other passions, genealogy:
www.topozone.com
They've got every single one of the USGS Topographical maps online, for
free. The genealogy folks use it for searching family history/real
estate/cemetaries, but it's got obvious uses for us as well. It's a
little slow, but has been upgraded in just the week or two I've been
visiting. I could find letterbox sites down to minute detail (check out
Valley Forge #1, Randy), and it has a really tremendous search
function. Enjoy!
