    Hi, folks

    I'm working on a project in an area where I don't already have the list
    of quads in my head so I need to see the topo quad index sheets from
    time to time to make sure I have what's supposed to be included. It's
    getting pretty old to have to go over to REI everytime I need an index
    (not to mention the local REI only has California, Nevada, and Arizona,
    which are not places I'm look for right now).

    Is there someplace online that has index sheets for topo maps, ideally
    as .pdf files so I can zoom the particular areas I need to know about?

    I've googled USGS topographic quadrangle index with all terms having to
    be included. I've also tried all the combos with slang words (topo
    quads index), etc. I've done the same search actually on the USGS
    website. No mas in all instances! ;~(

    Thanks for any light somebody can shed.
