Is there usually a problem with using rechargeable batteries?

Okay, I get it, but I did have to do a little bit of research, so I will keep mum.

I didn't, MapInstall opened automatically after sending the waypoints... I will have to try that again. Thanks for the feedback everybody.

I tried that. Do you have to have map install open before you send the user data with road trip?

We have a tutorial here on loading maps (both Windows & Mac):http://www.gpsfiledepot.com/tutorials/how-...armin-gps-unit/ Hey, thanks, could've used the info last week, but it is a good resource. Looks like I managed to download the ibycus topos just in time. This week I would be screwed.

Good point. Nope, not on the micro SD card although there is some weird map that I have never heard of on there. I don't know if you can select tiles in a way analogous with mapsource when you are using road trip. I can't remember how mapsource worked and I no longer have access to it. Doh! I had a brain fart. You use map install, not road trip. Thanks everybody for replying.

Logan is in the Mackenzie mountains, not the Rockies No, Mt. Logan is in the St. Elias range of the Coast Mountains I've seen it and Mt. Fairweather from the Kaskawulsh glacier in Kluane N.P. I'm not sure if it can be seen from the Alaska Highway.

Hmmmm... Are you sure you're using the right program to send them to the GPS? I seem to recall there being a couple of different options on the Mac... I'm not sure any more which was the correct one. No I'm not sure. For the mac there is Road Trip, Base map, Map installer, training centre, etc.... Base map only works with DEM data, so that leaves road trip as the most likely candidate, it certainly displays the maps well, and allows one to transfer routes and waypoints. There isn't a lot of documentation with these programs, or maybe I am just particularly confused today and I am missing something obvious.

I downloaded the mac version-it took 24 hours, but no problems, opened the file, installed it and can view it in road trip. it looks beautiful, great job! What I can not do is transfer the ibycus topo maps to my etrex vista cx. I can transfer routes okay, and I checked the box in preferences to send map with user data, but no map... Does anybody know what I am doing wrong or is there some other software I can use to transfer the actual topo map?
