What's up with this?!

Can ya'll share some other mapping options?

When you zoom in on the new CalTopo imagery it is pixelated.

I ended my paid account with them.

I really don't love caltopo, but they're by far the best WEBSITE that does this thing, that I know of. Would be interested in hearing about alternatives.

It looks like whatever agreement they had with google is gone, and they removed the other non-NAIP provider they used. But lots of people (including Kristin) are complaining in comments replying the the announcement, so maybe it'll get fixed. I still give them $.
