I have found tha tyou can't beat the National Geographics TOPO to be the best. I got a program with it to show GMU's, wich is help ful. The TOPO is the best out there.

Yes it would be nice to have private property boundrtys, but oh well  :dunno:

Can you get the NG map for a newer Garmin Rino 530?

As far as I know, the only map you can download to a Garmin GPS is a Garmin TOPO, but you can download and upload waypoints from the NG program, but not the map  :bash:

There are actualy quite a few different maps that you can download onto the Garmin Rino unit. I just wasn't sure if the NG maps were one of them. According to their GPS Compatability website you should be able to download the TOPO maps onto the Rino 520 & 530 http://www.natgeomaps.com/gps.html
However, it does not show that you can download the maps with Back Roads Explorer, Back Roads Explorer 3D, GPS USA.  I'm curious what the difference is??  I would like to know if the map that is compatible with the Rino shows all the roads that you see on a USGS map...anyone know??
