What exactly are you asking?

Of course, if you have any map in a knwon projection or in lat/lon, you can project it in any zone of UTM. So what is the problem...?

I keep coming back to the fact I need a map layer that is a meter projection.
 
In UTM there are several different projections:
 
     EPSG: 32611
     EPSG: 32612
     EPSG: 32613
 
These are based on zone.  Whatever longitude you are at would determine the zone.
 
Is there anyway to get the map in meters and add these layers for each zone?
 
Thanks,
Linda Rawson
