So, I am the new owner of an Extrex Legend and was just wondering what my options are for maps?
Fist, I have a problem with spending as much as I spent on my unit just to get a mother load of maps, 98% of which I have no interest in, nor will never use. Not to mention that fact that I believe that they are 1:50 000.
After an initial search, I thought that I was SOL. But I did find non-Garmin, Gamin compatible Ontario and Quebec topos at 1:20/10 000.
Does anyone know of any BC Garmin compatibles? |

Sun, Jul 20 at 08:24 PM | free and legal garmin compatible topo maps for canada (and many other parts of the world) can be found here... http://mapcenter2.cgps mapper.com/
the ones called
Ibycus Topo-002D01 are basically the canada topo maps from the government. you will need the garmin software (free with most garmin units) will work. be patient, there are a lot of maps and it takes a while to download them all. i have the garmin canada topo, but i usually use these. hope this helps.
