Just a bump to see how its going.....

NEVERMIND.  My dorkness is showing through.  For each region, there are actually two maps that are used. 

It is beautiful!  Very nice to have such high resolution.

One question.  When I upload the maps to the gpsmap 60cs, the roads appear as does the water features but the topo lines do not.   The other topo maps from miscjunk and here work in this respect.

Am I doing something wrong?

COOL!   

Let me know how it turns out.  I will be hitting the trails starting August 10th so if you have them ready, I would love to try them out.

Thanks for your effort.

Just following up to see if you had any luck with the CA Topo split.

If you have suggestions on how to do it, I am open.  I have downloaded the large California file but I still have no way to use it.

Thanks!

So I am assuming there is not any effort to create a CA topo right now? 

Any help would be appreciated.  I cannot use the 1 MB CA topo map because I have only a GPSMAP 60CS and not X.  Limitied space on the gps limits my maps since I cannot use a SD card.

Is California in the works?  Do you have a time frame for the state?

Oz,

Garmin needs to worry about you.  You are able to create in days and months what has taken them years to get around to and still not finish.  Furthermore, they have made their maps only work in the current model GPS, making mine obsolete.   Thank you for your hard work and to all the others who are helping you out.  You guys rock!

Let me know when you get California up.

Thanks for the help 
BUT I have an older  GPSmap 60CS so it does not have a removable SDcard.  I need to find a way to have the topo map available in mapsource so I can download only the needed maps.  That is why the AZ topo here and the other states available over at Miscjunk have  been so well recieved.  Somewhere out there, somebody is working on the CA topo that is using the same format.  I hope to see it.  I am a guppy in a big ocean of info right now.  I am learning new tricks as I go along but I don't think I am anywhere ready to create my own 24k topo yet.

If anybody has any ideas, I am willing to learn.

I have been looking for a better solution to Topo maps for my Garmin.  I just bought the 2008 Topo and was really let down.  It makes for good driving info but it is not too helpful in the biking and hiking dept.  I am looking forward to using your Utah and Arizona maps.  Thanks for all the work.

Any ideas on the timeframe for the California Topo?

Again, awsome site.  Thanks!
