+Muzikman Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 If you do a search you will find a few hits on this. But to save you the trouble. -Go to this site: http://www.ngs.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/datasheet.prl -Click on the "Archived Datasheet" button -Click the "Yearly Archive" button -Select the state you want and click the "Get County Archive" button -Select the county you want and click the "Download File" button (you can also choose which way you want the file to be downloaded (I usually choose "PC Unzipped") -Go to this site: http://parkrrrr.com/ and download the BMGPX utility. -Use GMGPX.exe to convert the .DAT file you got from the NGS site into a GPX file. -Use a utility such as GSAK to open the GPX file.
