Received the IPad Pro as a gift and recently purchased the Garmin eTrex 30x. Can I use Garmin’s basecamp with the IPad Pro to transfer info to the eTrex? I haven’t received the eTrex yet, should have it tomorrow. I would like to load the US topo with campsites and portages overlay.

A cursory search suggests that iOS devices are unable to run BaseCamp. There's a version of BaseCamp for Windows, and another for MacOS.

Kind of what I thought. Was able to download programs, but not able to open them up. Looks like a trip to the library when the eTrex shows up :( Another thought, is that sd card still floating around with the campsites, etc. on it?
