Thanks - though it was just a quick mock-up.

Why yes, as I found out.
The only data set I can find of that area is a 1 sec arc that covers something
like 69 miles square.
Once I figured out just HOW BIG the map was, corrected the scale, oriented
myself, found my way through it, and zoomed WAY WAY in to where I actually
wanted to be....   :O
I had to convert the original color png to a 16-color, and that brought out all
the elevation data, but at that resolution, it looks like Hell.

Any recommendations for data sources, fixing up what I've got?
"extra roughness"?
