I did as you suggested. I went to Phoenix and enlarged an area near there. I got no topo details where I know there is significant terrain.

Using The Maps/Garmin Software / how to display new topos
« on: March 18, 2019, 12:37:39 PM »
I have, I think, successfully downloaded and installed some Arizona topos. When I turn on my
Garmin Drive Smart 61, I select Settings>Map&Vehicle>My Maps. I see listed Arizona Topo 1, Arizona Topo 2, Etc. But I don't know how to display the topos to plan a trip.

I opened Basecamp. I plugged in an SD card as the target, I opened MapInstall. It sees the SD card. In the box at the bottom of the screen I see "No unlocked maps were found for this device."
Where do I go from there? I want to download Arizona topo. I have selected the topo on this website.

Boyd,
I do not have a smart phone. Never wanted one. I just carry an old-style flip phone when I travel to call for help. My only use for the traffic info would when I am home in Houston which has a LOT of traffic.
Thanks for the advice.

I posted the wrong model GPS. I plan to get the Garmin DriveSmart 65 & Traffic which will solve the traffic info problem. I see I can get one with a camera but I don't see the value in that. If I record my back road adventures the image will likely be very shaky on rough roads, unless the camera is stabilized, which seems unlikely. I also bet that lots of video uses of lots of memory.

I am new to GPS. I plan a trip to AZ in May to photograph ghost town and old mines. I am considering a Garmin DriveSmart™ 61 LMT-S for the trip ( and others to follow). Is this a suitable unit? Do I need to add extra memory if I add your AZ and NM topo maps or is the factory installed memory adequate?
