Just picked up a eTrex 20 bundle at Dicks for 100.00. Do I need to purchase maps for bwca portages and campsites or can I download all this info. for free.

The Arch Harris data is free, but a bit confusing at first figuring out how to make it usable for each individual's need.

I gave a shot at a step-by-step here. (for Mac, but similar instructions apply to Windoze)

coolrade,

Is that sale still going on? I would like to get the etrex 20 bundle for $100, that is a great deal, but my online search the best price for the bundle seems to be around $250

This bundle? Great deal ya got!
Get you Basecamp program installed and follow Schweady's advise. Or the post just below this one, "Downloading maps" .

Zoco, Found this on clearance at a Dick's in Liberty mo. This was the last one in the case.

Shucks. I might give the store a call just in case there are any left. Thanks.

Coolrade, I'm wondering if you would be willing to do me a big favor. I just called the store and they actually have one left! Unfortunately they will not let me purchase it over the phone. I had the manager (John) set it aside and hold it for me. I'm hoping that you could buy it and ship it to me and I would pay you back. That's asking a lot, I know. Click on the little envelope or send me an email at canoedad89@gmail.com

Thanks.

zoco. I was just passing thru Liberty. I live 100 miles from that store. sorry, if i lived there it would be no problem.

Well drats! Unless someone else reading this lives in Liberty, my quest for a good deal ends here :(

Thanks again coolrade, enjoy your new gps.
