+Mopar Posted August 15, 2004 Share Posted August 15, 2004 Go to this link and download. Its free and a good program And it doesn't do what he's asking for. Pretty much the only maps you can load into the GPS are the ones the manufacturer sells. Bite the bullet and buy them, it's only the cost of a few weekends geocaching. Quote Link to comment
Tahosa and Sons Posted August 16, 2004 Share Posted August 16, 2004 Look at Nat Geographics TOPO, you can make your own maps and then do more than that if you are creative. Quote Link to comment

They run without batteries and so does my compass. Quote Link to comment

Unfortunately not; you can, however, download trails and waypoints directly from Topo! into pretty much any GPS (I generally plan all my backpacking routes in Topo and then just download them into my meridian platinum).
