Cris:

Some time ago, we had a forum member that was in the business of selling paper maps (not sure of the area) who was considering becoming an advertiser. As I recall Larry knew him.

Larry, any info on him?

The Map Centre went out of business about a year ago. Yeah it was a good store. You can buy USGS topos from the USGS at http://www.usgs.gov/.

Enjoy!

what about REI? I remember that they used to have a computer that could print out topos.

Yes they do, it is a National Geographic kisok. Never tried it. Also they sell the Tom Harrison topo maps and the National Geographic maps (paper & software).

The last time I was at a Sport Challet they had USGS Topo paper maps.

You might want to give them a try also.

Ranger stations and BLM offices generally carry the sectional Topo maps as well.

Adventure 16 has some USGS quads. I usually order from the USGS but I have picked up a few at Adventure 16.
