Realistic Expectations November 24, 2009 Tom Ponte (Bend Oregon) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I am going through the reviews here and one thing that I can see is that a lot of folks have totally unrealistic expectations for this product. A typical "quad" map that you would use for hiking is at a scale of 1:24,000. The maps used in this product are 1:100,000 which are suitable for hiking in some cases. Mostly they are going to let you know general proximity to features such as mountains, rivers major roads and so on which might possibly save your bacon if you are lost. You are dreaming folks if you think you are going to get 1:24,000 scale quad maps for the entire US for $75 that all fits on to your little GPS unit. For instance 1:24,000 maps that cover all of the state of Oregon from the National Geographic State series is over 3GB of data and costs about $100. The amount of data that you can fit on SD cards now is amazing but not that amazing that you could fit the entire US 24k maps on a micro SD card. By the way the paper version of those maps used to cost about $10 just for one map that covered approximately 7 miles in a north south direction and was two and half feet tall. Digital versions of these that are easy to use for the general public have only been around for about 15 years. How quickly we expect miracles in the digital age!
Garmin does make a 24k product divided up into regions like the west coast states for $94 (Garmin MapSource TOPO! US 24k West Topographic Coverage for Washington, Oregon, California, and Nevada (DVD)) which is availble on Amazon. Even this is pretty amazing to fit on to a micro sd card assuming that you can in fact load it all on.
Does what it was advertised to do November 3, 2009 Kenneth A. Hoyesen (Plymouth, New Hampshire United States) Although I feel the prices for these Garmin maps are way too expensive they do work well with my Garmin 60CSx GPS. To avoid any install or operational problems I just bit the bullet and bought their map. So everytime I use the GPS now, it works perfectly and that's worth a lot to me to have that kind of confidence in my gear.
GPS Software September 29, 2009 Reed B. Embley I have to say that I am NOT pleased with the Garmin Topo US 100K software. I cannot get it to install properly on my computers and I have not been able to use it yet. I've e-mailed Garmin and they say to call in . . . their call-in times are during the day and hard for me to make contact with them. I guess once I get some time to call in, maybe I'll be happier. Right now I am not impressed.
