I was at the USGS offices the other day and they showed me this site to search and download any USGS maps for free. Search by town, state, quad name, etc. They also have a historical map search that is very valuable. Enjoy!

You can use the link below to find the map you are looking for. Zoom to your area of search, mark your point. Click on the point and it will tell you all of the available maps you can download by name and date.

The maps listed in the area you select that have (US TOPO) in the name, and are between 15 and 40 megs, are full color arial photography with all of the contours, grids, hydrology etc in layers that can be selected or deselected. These are the latest and greatest, best of the best of the TOPO map world. If you think Google Earth is cool, try these arial maps. Add all of the maps to your download cart and start downloading.
