Loading Trail Maps on to Oregon

[+ToonAl]

Okay i know this is surely discussed here somewhere but I hate the search capability of the forums and just looking for an easy answer.

 

Anyway I am looking for easy steep by step directions to load Juicepigs trail maps on to my Oregon 400. I downloaded the files on the site but I cannot figure the part where I get them on to the actual gps.

 

or maybe I am missing the instructions.

 

i did check the technology forum here but could not find directions there either.

All I do is put a folder on my micro sd card that is labelled 'garmin' and put the image file in there. the gpsr (oregon450 and it also worked with my dakota 20) should just read the file and use it.

You're not referring to the Ontario Trails Project are you? I know that I worked with Juicepig for some maps for Spring Fling - if that's what you're using switch to the OTP for the current, updated maps of Tiffen as that was merged back in and updated with attendees tracklogs after the event closed.

Oops I gave credit where it wasn't due. So many animal names it gets confusing.

 

Thanks.

No problem

 

So Flintstone answered your question - copy ont-trails.img to \GARMIN on your Oregon, or on your SD Card and you should be all set!
