It worked for me with IE. Maybe it's because I haven't updated IE for a while. :) Or maybe it own't work for me at home either. But at least there's hope!

If you still can't get through, you can also download the same USGS topo maps for California here:

These are GeoTIFF files so they're kinda big (20+ megs).

Wow! That mapper is nice! How cool that you can swap between the topo and satellite. Thanks, asabat.

Thanks for the other link too, Tim.
