LAST EDITED ON Jul-15-09 AT 12:17PM (MST)[p]Not sure if you are looking for printed maps or just something to display on a PC. If you want online maps, here are a few:

MyTOPO is a good system as others already mentioned.

IDFG's hunt planner system has a lot of good features, I especially like seeing the private/public land ownership boundaries:

I just discovered this GIS system from the BLM last week. It has some features the F&G system doesn't, and vice versa. Hint: uncheck the "PLSS" checkbox to remove the township grid overlay.

An updated travel map from the land-management agency for the area should also show all the road data you may need.

My personal preference is Google Earth, except it doesn't have any creek or river names in it, so that makes navigation tough. However, last week I stumbled across a link where you can download a .kmz file to overlay USGS topo maps into Google Earth. Problem solved! Link to .kmz file is in this blog entry:
