Go out in parts of Utah/Arizona once where there truly is nothing, and think, eh, I'm not going too far from my car.

Land nav is something that is a lost skill, but can cost you for not having.
MyTopo | Custom Topo Maps, Aerial Photos, Online Maps, and Map SoftwareGreat information. I have one question though. Say I wanted a map of a particular area. I know that usgs have maps but where can I go online to order them and have them in the scales that I can use my gear with? Any help would be much appreciated...
Thanks in advance.
