Hello,

I am planning a trip to Woodland Caribou PP next year and would like to know if there are any maps of this area that I can download to my Garmin 62s?

Thanks much

Did you try Garmin dot com?

Could use the .kmz file off Google with BaseCamp

or,

the Ibycus Topo 3.2 from gpsfiledepot.com (free shareware), also shown on BaseCamp.

Thanks much for the information. Actually I was interested in a map similar to Red Pine's map of the Quetico (which I have used) that has the portages located on them.

Don't think Garmin would have maps with this feature.

Red Pine Paddle Nav does not include WCPP.

Something like this help you?

I can e-mail you the overlay (portages, campsites, picto sites, etc.) that I use in MapSource, but the map shown is a Garmin product (Topo Canada).

Hi DD,

Yes, what you have accomplished is exactly what I need. Could you email me the file?

I will probably have to purchase the Canada Topo right?

Thanks again for the help.

Check your e-mail.

Yes, you'd need to buy Topo Canada if you want an exact match to what is shown. Topo Canada is proprietary. E-mail contains other details.
