I have City Navigator North America 2008 / Mapsource 6.14.1
I have downloaded maps for my state, but I am unable to see rivers on the Etrex HcX, i thought even the basemap that came with it displayed rivers. The detail is set to High in unit. I do not see rivers in the mapsource software either. I realize topo 2008 might do this, but I thought basic river info was displayed from the basemap of the hcx. I do not want to purchase Topo, just to see the blue river lines.
This is gonna be a question of how big is the river?
The base map normally doesn't have rivers (maybe the Mississippi River) and has crappy roads. City Navigator has a few rivers and excellent roads.
What river are you looking for (coordinates would be great) and I'll check it on city navigator and the topo.
I have solved the problem by installing IbycusUSA, this allows me very detailed rivers/lakes & even roads, I still have city navigator installed also, the only catch to this free map set is that I do have to select one or the other, I can't view both and the IbycusUSA isn't routable.
You are correct. You may be able to view the Ibycus one and still route with the City Navigator underneath. I'm not 100% sure though.
Yea, I've had that issue too.
Glad you got it fixed
