I don't have a link; though you could probably find them online. For decades I used the original paper topo maps; but after I collected hundreds, adequate storage became an issue. I still have National Geographic TOPO! map software, with California, Nevada and Utah map sets on CD ROM for my old Windows Vista computer. Then I got a Windows 10 computer and found Google Earth (TOPO! is incompatible with Windows 8 on up). TOPO! used USGS mapsets, but were seamless, so you could go to one quad to another without interruption.
