  1. I have "Backroads Maps Ontario V3" and "Garmin Canada Topo Maps V4" installed
  2. I see an icon called "Hunt and Fish" but do not see what you are saying. What profile do you see it in? I created a Profile called "ATV" and it is in there and not in any of the other profiles...I do see the "Hunt and Fish Icon" as well
  3. I just noticed a Icon in the Drawer named "Fishing Spots" which I don't remember seeing before, has this always been there? Or was it just added with the 4.10 update? Can anybody tell me how to add a fishing spot to it?
  4. Just a follow up, on how my issue was resolved. Hi Oliver It worked!........Thanks for your help! I can see the trails on my GPS clear as day!

  5. I have brought this to the attention of Backroad Gps Maps and this is their response: Hello Travis, Thank you for purchasing our Backroad GPS Maps. In general you should see the same information on your GPS unit as you do on the computer version in BaseCamp. Unfortunately you are not able to change the colour of line styles or any other feature that comes with our GPS Maps. In some cases the GPS unit might show different details and information due to the settings of the GPS. Another rather possible reason could be that the colour match table is corrupted. This table will assign the correct colour to individual features. A way to rectify the issue is to transfer the maps from BaseCamp to your SD card. Please see the attached document for further instruction on transfering maps to your SD card. Also, it would be interesting for us to see how the GPS unit is showing the line feature and the background. If you could make a screen shot from your GPS unit and email those images to us it would be a great help to assess the problem. To capture a screen shot from your GPS Unit go to "Setup" -> "Display" -> "Screen Capture". Then you will be able to take screen shots which will be saved in a folder within the internal memory of your GPS unit. To access the folder connect your GPS unit via USB cable to your computer, in File Explorer go to your GPS unit -> Garmin -> scrn -> the screen shot files should be listed there. I hope this helps. Please feel free to contact us if you have any further question. Of course we will try to solve the issue with the lines style for you.

  6. I have the "Backroad GPS Maps for Ontario" 2 MB SD Card, and I have a Garmin Montana 650 GPS, when I install the "Backroad GPS Maps SD card" into the GPS I can barely see the ATV/Hiking trails etc. (white trail on a white background, the name of the trail is shown), not my "Tracks" but the trails that came with the data card from Backroad GPS Maps) yet when I open up "Garmin Base Camp" software and view the map in there, ATV/Hiking trails stand out. I have played around with changing the "Track" colours and it changes my "Track" colours no problem but it dosent change the colour of the "Trails" that are pre-installed on the "Backroad GPS Maps" SD card. Has anybody else experienced this? Is there a way of changing the colours of the trails so I can see them?
