Just found this site. Anyone who lives in Missouri, USA, might find it interesting. I've only looked at maps for St. Louis County; they show roads (but not road names), general indications of percent of grade, topo countours, all sorts of other data. I checked the slope of some hills I ride, and now I don't feel so bad about how slow I climb. :)

Edit: Contour data is incomplete. Some sections show it, and some do not.

Sounds interesting, I'll go check it out.

BTW, the Missouri Conservation Dept has an excellent Atlas of Missouri that has one page for each county and shows ALL roads, even gravel. I use for planning day tours.
