GPSr Units / Re: Rino 530Hcx

Have you transferred the maps to your GPSr while the SD card is installed?  I have the same Rino and this works great for me.

Seldom, thanks for the overlay.  Unfortunately, the hunting area is a little south of 35N.  I can live without the border area for now.

Sorry OZ, I did not preview the my post before submitting it.  I meant approx. 1/2 mile. 
Interesting thread, though  I'll see if turning off the AZ map helps.  The missing area, unfortunately, is right where I am going to hunt.  I'll look forward to the update.  THANKS!!

Has anyone else noticed that there appears to be a missing area (approx. 10 mi wide) along the entire AZ-NM border, on the New Mexico Side?

It is too hot to make any trips until mid October.  But my family and I make several trips during the fall and winter months.

A shaded polygon would be OK, for the location I'm looking at.  There is really nothing out there but sand, and the elevation contours really don't matter to me out there. 
I can start with a polygon and over time I'll work on my map making skills.

Thanks for your advice.

Really, all I want to do is make a set of overlays (shaded areas) which mark closure/off limit areas for atv riders.  It seems like a pretty easy concept, but I'm not sure how to get started  :-\

Boyd, thanks for the clarification.
I am going to try and use Google Earth, GE2GPX, GPSBABEL, MapSource and Map Install to create my own map and/or overlay.  I hope it won't be too bad   :o

I can't get GE2GPX to load the .kmz file (error: kmz compression method not supported).  I have also converted the .kmz file to a .gdb (using GPSBABEL) but I can not see the map in MapSource (ver. 6.13.7 with trip and waypoint manager v5).  Any ideas?

On a side note, I have downloaded and installed the Arizona Topo.  Looks great.

Thanks for the files.  I'll play around with them and see if I can figure out how to create a custom map.

jolly47roger:  Thanks for the map.  I'll dump them to my device later today and give it a try.

Thanks again!!

Does anyone have custom maps (Garmin Rino 530 HCx) of the Imperial Sand Dunes closure areas?
I am new to custom maps and do not want to traverse the miles and miles to "map" the perimeters. 
Any other suggestions would be greatlyl appreciated.   ???
