General Discussion / Re: 100 K Question
March 09, 2011, 12:28:12 PM
Thanks for the valuable information; it was very informative. I chose the 62s because I wanted to save some money and because I don't actually need maps for the whole country. I probably do 90 percent of my hiking and fishing in two states, but I can always download other states from your site as I need them. I upgraded my GPS mostly because the 62s has a more sensitive receiver and picks up better under tree cover than does my old 76MAP. The topos are a bonus and the color screen is another bonus.

I am semi-retired now so who knows, I may try to author a map.

General Discussion / 100 K Question
March 09, 2011, 06:26:54 AM
Hey folks, great forum! I have been using handheld GPS for nearly 20 years, my first (I believe) was a Garmin 12. I have also owned the 12XL, 38, 76MAP, and recently ordered the 62s.

My question: I have searched the forum and files and haven't found it yet. Is there a map that is equivalent (or close) to the the Garmin 100K maps that come pre-installed from the factory?

Thanks,
Ron
