 May be a stupid question..

 I need a decent map (book of maps) of the Flattops area. I saw a pretty decent book at the Steamboat Fly Shop, but didn't have all the lakes I was looking at...

 Anyone know where I can buy/order one from?

 Thanks

One thing I have been trying to remember to do before I go to a new area is study the area on the Google Earth on-line in addition to looking at maps on the table.

Not going to help you much James, but there is a very good map store on Colorado Ave here in the Springs that is great for looking at maps.  James you might want to try REI, they have some good map books and map software.
