Thank you, Popej, this is fantastic information!
How so, did the op finally disable his City Navigator and discover his TOPO maps?

Well now, I don't think we will know that until the OP tells us.

Meanwhile, another user posted some very useful information, and I thanked them for it.

Actually we know because we took an Oregon 450 and loaded the very same maps as the op and saw the issue the op described. Everything else is off topic.

You need to be at the location of the data you sent to the GPSr or zoom to that location.
Zoom in to about the 500' level; might also be a profile issue.
Unlikely the tiles would have the same name as I use the lon and lat as part of the tile/segment name (number).


I agree on the profile issue.  I have the same Oregon and have had the same issues.  Change the profile and try to pull the map up, mine worked that way.  Garmin confirmed issues with profiles quite some time ago but no fix was provided.
