Found a cool GPS program
I found this today while trying to convert a garmin file to something I could see.
http://www.gpsvisualizer.com/gpsbabel/ It's stupid-easy (perfect for me!). All you need to do is have a file on your harddrive you want to read. Tell the program what kind of file it is (like the GPS it's from), what you want the output to be (different GPS, or mapping program), whether to zip the file and if you want all the data shown (waypoints, track, routes). Then let it do it's stuff. I converted a garmin file over to show up in Google Earth and it took all of about one second for the magic to happen.

Yes, that's a nice tool.
Also, here is a pretty good article on using GPS with paper maps: http://www8.garmin.com/manuals/Using...aps_Manual.pdf |
