Mapsource Us Topo

[+Two Old Crows]

We geocache with a laptop and Microsoft Streets and Trips but we also have Garmin US Topo loaded. The Microsoft product works very well with the GPS locator but we would like to switch between Streets and Trips and US Topo especially when placing caches and scouting for good places.The problem is I cannot see the GPS on the Topo Map. I was under the impression that it would be possible to use our Garmin GPSMAP 60C in conjunction with the Garmin US Topo product. Am I missing something or is this not possible?

Garmin dropped the real-time tracking feature from MapSource some time after they introduced the nRoute program which performs that function. It's a free download and works with your MapSource mapsets incl. Topo although it seems to be primarily designed for the autorouting maps such as CitySelect/Navigator.
