Pacific Crest Trail .KMZ Trouble, Oregon 400t

I downloaded the .kmz file for the Pacific Crest Trail from www.pcta.org and viewed it in Google Earth to see if it works for me.

I then put the .kmz in the custom maps folder on my Oregon 400t.

On reboot of the gps, it starts to boot, then shuts down.

The only way to give it life again is to force usb mass storage mode.

I remove the file, and all is good. With the file in, not good.

The file size is 3.34mb.

Any ideas? Please keep it simple. Only mildly CPU savvy. Or does anyone have a working PCT.kmz they're willing to share if I can't get this sorted out?

 

Thanks,

Eddie

If I remember correctly, that website did not always have the best data. In some segments in CA, the National Park Service and Forest Service had better data. I reviewed the conflcits and in several places it looked like the website had the general location and the NPS or FS had GPS data. So I went with the NPS/FS in those locations.
