black sunshine Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 I have a Garmin with Parks & Rec maps and I love it. Handlebar mounted, shows snowmobile trails, two-ruts, probably got your shortcut to your fav fishin' hole on this sucker! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2001Stroker Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 I have a Garmin 60CSx. I loaded U.S. Topo 2008, Chesapeake Bay Blue Charts v5, Chesapeake Bay Tides and Marine Services v5, and City Select North America v7. banshee_terror_, you have been misinformed. I can be anywhere on land, water, or driving, and never be lost. Not to mention, you can track where you've been, and plot routes that you want to take.

black sunshine Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 which map did you buy, i bought the topo map, did you get the topo national parks one? I had a buddy throw his shit on mine, I believe he said it was called Parks and Recreation Maps. I had bought the Topo's, he swore what I needed was the P&R's. They are great, just don't have the elevation contours. They have roads, streets, lakes(no depths) and just about anything you would call a trail. I would at least check them out!

2001Stroker Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 I had a buddy throw his shit on mine haha. He's gonna wish he didn't, one day. Garmin only gives you 2 certificates for each CD. If he loses his GPS, or if it takes a shit, he's gonna have to buy a new CD. You lucked out though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
