This is primarily for those of you using Garmin GPS units and using Garmins 'MapSource' mapping software. Following a link provided an another list I found this source of a lot of free topo maps http://www.gpsfiledepot.com/ I've downloaded several and after running the install they are appearing and can be selected for viewing in MapSource. There are some detailed instructions on the site for installing using a couple of other free programs but I didn't find the other programs were needed. I haven't tried to load them into my Garmin GPS unit yet, I'll post on what I find when I try that. |
