Okay, seem like the easiest method to show Baja topo maps on Nomad pages. Some maps are vertical and some horizontal (El Rosario).

Not sure if each of the maps I just posted is the newest method, but the new webpage is made and I will be adding to it, the JPEG versions of CalTopo...

Those are looking excellent on your website. I haven't tried to download and enlarge them, but just clicking the link and looking at all the maps, I don't see how they could be any better.
