Sender: Elisabeth Filar <[log in to unmask]> Thanks to Charles Hickman at USGS I received an answer to my question about Primary Base Series maps - which are through USFS not BLM. Since a few people I asked directly, hadn't heard of this series, I figured I should post this on maps-l and let everyone know. http://www.fs.fed.us/gsc/products.htm#Primary and click on "more about PBS..." ~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~ Elisabeth Filar * Map Librarian Earth Sciences Library * Campus Box 184 University of Colorado at Boulder phone: 303-492-7578 * fax:303-735-4879 http://www-libraries.colorado.edu/ps/map/frontpage.htm -----Original Message----- From: Maps and Air Photo Systems Forum [mailto:[log in to unmask]]On Behalf Of Johnnie Sutherland Sent: Saturday, April 22, 2000 2:44 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: USGS topo question <fwd> --- Begin Forwarded Message --- Date: Wed, 19 Apr 2000 09:53:04 -0600 From: Elisabeth Filar <[log in to unmask]> Subject: USGS topo question I hope this isn't too ignorant of a question to ask... I do appreciate any info anyone can give me! I had a patron yesterday requesting a particular USGS topo quad of the "primary base series". He said these types of maps had been done in the last 15 years showing BLM type information - such as mining claims and ownership - on 7.5" topos. I didn't know this was a series and we didn't have the quad he wanted though he said it had been completed so I'm not sure of the info he provide me. Would there be a list, or would these be noted in a guide somewhere? Can anyone give me insight to this series? I'd love as little or as much info as you can provide. You can email me directly with responses.... Thanks!
