Title: Learned of a new topomap site
Post by: Mike_H on January 19, 2014, 08:58:53 pm

http://caltopo.com/map.html  It's just for the lower 48 but it's a custom topo map maker.  You essentially use a square to get the area you want and print it off.  Pretty cool.

Cool!  Topo maps are great ways to scout. I'll have to check that out.

Not so anymore, mullet.  It's now apart of Alltrails.com and to use the map feature, you have to upgrade to Pro and that's $50 a year.  CalTopo is 100% free.

I checked it out.  Pretty cool site.  The satellite picture of our property is only a few months old.

satalite images are never up to date.  Even Google earth isn't.
