Terraserver ?
What was the link to the Terraserver site, something like "advanced find" or something like that? Need some photos and the terraserver site won't let me center and print some of the areas.

I think that is the same site, but they have changed something since the last time I printed off some photos. It won't allow you to zero in on some areas with the printer. There are gaps in the printing. Thanks anyway.

Yeah I think they have change a few things on their site and I have had a little trouble in printing some areas but I think its on their end, sometimes I can print about any area I want and then times I can't.

Kind of nice to have that site at your fingertips and I especially like the aerial photos.
Not to get off track here but has anyone used maptech software?? I picked up the state of Montana which is basically all topos maps for whole state. It's not cheap at about $88 at amazon but it is handy. Before heading to Montana last fall, I picked up a data cable for the GPS, marked a bunch of waypoints, and downloaded onto GPS. I brought up one waypoint which was an intersecting road and when we arrived it said 29 feet to waypoint. Thus far I've been pretty pleased with it and it's defintely handy as I was able to get to ridges, etc that I had marked. I took a print out of hunting area which showed all waypoints, I covered both sides with clear contact paper for moisture control, and brought it along. Anyway, here is link to their website...
