Would it be possible to consider including a 'Routable' column with the others here:

http://www.gpsfiledepot.com/maps/state/all

I have found several routable maps available here, but currently no system exists to identify them in the map list.

Thank You.

Not sure, I have not looked at every map :)

None of mine are routable.

So, you guys are kind of making my point for me. There are routable maps available, but currently, we have no function to find them other than browsing each and every map description to see if it is routable...

Even if a new column is added, it won't help unless all the authors go back and edit their map pages to indicate routable maps.

Seems like a good idea to add this feature for the future though.

I suspect those authors who have gone to the extra trouble involved in making their maps routable will have no issues with making a small adjustment to those map pages so their hard work easier to find :)

Doesn't sound like there will be a whole lot of work to do that.

I will definitely add it (missed this topic).

This feature has been added.  Seldom's maps that are routable have been marked as such.
