I'm in the process of importing all 50,000+ 7.5-minute USGS topographic
maps into Google Earth. As of today, I have about 25,000 of them
complete and will be adding a few 1,000 more each week until finished.
Each map is a separate KMZ file, that can be downloaded and viewed from
an index in GE that covers the entire US.

These are high resolution SuperOverlays of the full maps, and include
all the information in the collars.

Simply download this file into Google Earth to get started.
