Looking for ski touring maps with routes named was created by Mattski
I am trying to print 1:24,000 USGS for the Mt Baker Ski Area & Snoqualmie Pass with the routes marked and named. Any suggestions where to find this info, especially for Baker. Any contribution will receive a marked map in return and some beverage as well!

Google maps has many ski runs marked (e.g. check out
this hill map view
of aplental). It appears that Mt. Baker ski area has not yet made it into google maps.

I am looking for specific lines in areas around Mt Baker and Snoqualmie. These maps are great if you have the guide book, but lack the more specific features and lines that people have skied and named. I am trying to build a run data base linked to a map from Lowell Skoog's Alpenglow historical data. If anyone can provide more specific info for those two areas, their help will be appreciated!

Might I suggest an approach that may aid in gathering information about your project? Go to the areas you are looking for beta on and talk to the locals to get routes and names of ski lines. This should be the best way to get feedback of how your project is viewed by real skiers that have dedicated their lives to earning this knowledge. And if you don't get traction with this approach you may have better luck asking them if you could sleep with their girlfriend and post the pictures on the internet. Get a map, go explore, have fun and refrain from claiming via tr's.
