Topographic Maps

[General Pain]

I know Google earth is an excellent mapping resource, but I was hoping anyone had link(s) to various topographic maps for basically anyplace you can think of that are easily printable. I find it an excellent addon when you (as GM) are gonna explain how steep a mountain is etc... and its a bit easier to write footnotes,units buildings not on GE etc when it is in mono (black and white.)

HQ used to use TOPO USA - but they don't ship outside the US. And maps from other contries is just as interesting.

It's in Russian, but what better source for all your captured documents?

I would suggest looking for USGS topographical maps and Google earth. I know that Google maps integrates with the USGS data base so I would assume that Google earth would as well. This is of course assuming you are looking for United States information.
