  Exactly - I'm just at the point where I need a high quality hiking / 
biking map in a relatively small region in the US.

  http://topo.geofabrik.de/ has exactly the features and type of rendering I 
had in mind, but it doesn't cover the US and I haven't had time to dig about 
to see if any of it is open source.  I'm beginning to check into a custom 
version of a Mapnik stylesheet and rendering.

   (PS  I used the S.O.S (Spawn of Satan) tag 'path' , so I'm not sure how 
many of my trails will work with other stylesheets)
