Better quality and detail compared to the shaded relief options already included in GaiaGPS. But I don't see a way to add it as a Custom Layer since it's not a TMS source.

  Hi there,

  You can add that map source using these steps:https://help.gaiagps.com/hc/en-us/articles/360047068634-How-to-Import-ArcGIS-WMTS-Map-Sources

  The WMTS server is here: https://basemap.nationalmap.gov/arcgis/rest/services/USGSShadedReliefOnly/MapServer/WMTS/1.0.0/WMTSCapabilities.xml

  Thanks. That works! Had to reverse y & x just like the example.  

  Since USGS is public here is the URL for others: https://basemap.nationalmap.gov/arcgis/rest/services/USGSShadedReliefOnly/MapServer/WMTS/tile/1.0.0/USGSShadedReliefOnly/default/default028mm/{z}/{y}/{x}.png

  For some reason the resolution and detail is much better when this same source is shown in the JOSM OpenStreetMap editor app.
