+Team Dromomania Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 Each cache web page has a topo map to show the cache location. I personally like the program USAPhotoMaps for topo (and other types of maps). Quote Link to comment
+Renegade Knight Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 There are several websites that show you how to make your own topo maps for Garmin Mapsource software. It's a big PITA but you can do it. It's easier to just buy the topo in the US. Other countries have no topo coverage so those programs are a big help. Quote Link to comment

I don't know of any topo maps that you can get for the 60c cheaper than the Garmin maps--I got one from Amazon for about $80. But, you can get a paper topo map from the ranger's station at Stanton for under $10. You do need one if you are going to do any real hiking. There are plenty of websites with trail maps for differet areas of the gorge. http://www.redrivergorge.org/ Quote Link to comment
+Markwell Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 What about using the geocachingadmin.com terraserver viewer? Make the maps 1000 by 750 pixels, right click each and save them to your computer. I then put them into powerpoint, and they fit nicely with one each on a page. Then you can print off as many as you want. Free except for ink. Quote Link to comment
