I'm planning on visiting the Hatfiel-McCoy "Trail Heaven" and would like to know if anyone has the USGS "Quadrangle"s for that area. Specifically, "Williamson" 37802E1, and "Beckley" 37801A1. These are 24000:1 Quadrangles. If you know a website that I can download them, I'd like that, or if you've got these two quads, I'd like to get them.
Also, if you've got some "track" files off of your GPS from those trails, I'd like to get them. They would be much smaller files than those topo maps. Thanks for any help.
BTW; the USGS topo maps are not copywrited, and may be freely reproduced.

Unlike a lot of other riding places, they have trail maps available for download (and at the trailhead) that are maps of the trails that you are riding (not maps how to get to the trailhead). Each trail is numbered, so you can tell where you are by what trail you are crossing. Also, a GPS "track" will match the drawings real well, so you can identify where you are between corssong trails based on the shape of the GPS track to the trail drawings. I say this from experiencing it firsthand, although the GPS unit was not mine.
