But yea - that's why.. I'd also suggest the "free" topo's as they seem to be pretty good from what i've seen. I've got them on my Oregon300. Quote Link to comment

Note the Navtek badge at the bottom of Garmin's listing for it: https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?pID=35408&pvID=36719 Quote Link to comment
