TOPOZONE

 

Select the 1:100K series, I find it shows them at the 1:200,000 scale but you may have to play around. T&R are in 6 mile sq, so the more area, the smaller scale you need and this harder to read.

 

 

All USGS quads maps have the T & R on them.......You can usually buy them at sporting good stores, not the chain stores but th local hunting, fishing, hiking places.

RE: TOPOZONE

 

I have found it very helpful to subscribe to the enhanced services for about $49/year. For some of us self-employed professionals who have to be out on the road, it probably is a tax deduction. (Consult with your accountant.) But any serious benchmark hunter may find the price justified in order to obtain photos and advanced search provisions.

 

Compared with Golf or Amateur Radio, this is a low-cost hobby. You should be able to convince your spouse that throwing a few bucks at it is not unreasonable. Or, drop a hint about getting a subscription as a gift idea for the upcoming holiday season!

If your gonna spend money on maps,maybe you should suggest to Santa to get you TOPO! National Geographic Interactive.

I can make my own maps from them customized.

And on and on!!!

Topo section of this free program http://jdmcox.com/ has Township/Range annotations (you have to look for them). Program lets you switch from topos to superimposed photomosaics. Includes waypoint and GPS routines, and some other good stuff. Very useful. Broadband connection recommended to downloaded maps.
