Hi: I'm curious which map chips you purchase for WCPP? I have a Garmin handheld unit.
Thanks!

I will let someone else tell you how to get the maps you need for free, but this is what i have been using.

Topo Canada: Central

I was able to download it to my memory card in the Garmin 64st. If you post this question in the GPS forum, I'm sure someone can point you to a cheaper option, but this worked great for me!

I have Topo Canada and it works great.

If you want to go the cheap route I would recommend Ibycus . You have to have a little more technical knowledge to get it loaded up. I tried it and it was ok but then got a good deal on Topo Canada so I went that route.

I found navigation in WCPP to be fairly easy and only used the GPS to keep track of miles and store a track log for later use. Every once in awhile I would use it to settle and argument I was having with my map. It came in very handy on Jigsaw Lake.

Garmin's topo Canada is all I have ever used in the gps. Even bushwhacking up canoe width streams it had all the detail I needed.

Thank you very much for the info!

Yes, thanks for the info.
I always have a GPS and it makes navigation easy, so I can keep my attention on the fun stuff, like fishing! I'm a map and gps junkie. It adds redundancy to redundancy. In Quetico, I have Fisher maps, the BWCA/Quetico chip in my GPS, and a route on the GPS that I planned, from another site. And a compass of course. First time to WCPP, I had the Adventure Map, a set of maps from Red Lake Outfitters, and the route on the GPS. I DID miss having the topo base map on the GPS. So yes, thanks for the info I will probably get the Garmin topo chip! Having the route overlaid on a topo map on the GPS sure makes things easier. Especially when the route isn't entirely accurate. I never got lost, as I depended on the hardcopy maps more so than the GPS.
