There is another way to view hi-res topo maps over google maps: Gmap4. It is AMAZING. http://www.mappingsupport.com/p/gmap4.php world view (home page) http://www.mappingsupport.com/p/gmap4.php?ll=37.871138,-119.349399&t=t4&z=14 hi-res topo view of the JMT in the Tuolumne Meadows area. http://www.backpackinglight.com/cgi-bin/backpackinglight/forums/thread_display.html?forum_thread_id=59084 Post by its creator on all the amazing features This is a great resource for trip planning, route sharing, or just drooling over the super cool, shaded, hi-res topo maps hockeygrin.gif Enjoy!

Isn't that sweet! Fox? Meet Joey. Creator of GMap4. smile.gif I agree that GMap4 is the bomb. Google Earth has its place in my mapping arsenal, but I use GMap4 for most of my trail research and everyday mapping at this point.
