loading national geographic topo on my map60. can it be done?

[stude]

I have a map60cx and would like the national geographic topo that I bought on it. Can someone tell me how to install it? I can move waypoints and the tracks fine but would like the map.

Thanks

It's not possible.

I really like that map over the garmin topo. It shows more of the logginf/forest service roads.

Thanks

One possible work around is to traces the missing roads in NG Topo to make tracks and transfer those to your GPS.

 

Another possibility is to download road info from the Forest Service Geodata Clearinghouse, but the process of converting the data from the shapefile the FS provides into tracks you can transfer to your GPS is not simple.

I been looking at the latest garmin maps . I have a 4yr old mapsource topo . Would the park one show the forest near the parks and its roads?

I would like to know if a road is near when I go romping through the brush. I go to the snoquamie mt.baker national forest and not any parks.

The sample that garmin doesnt help much.

Thanks lots for your help

The map viewer on Garmin's website (see link) will tell you if the trails show up in the topo software.
