Customer Reviews

Garmin topo gps CD
Garmin topo program would not down load to Microsoft XP. I tried to work through Garmin customer service and was on hold for 1.5 hours. Then I reached the level 1 tech who then referred me to the level 2 tech whom I never could speak to. So, I returned the product to Amaxon.

Topo 2008
Good, but wish it included street addresses even though it's a topo. Very easy product to use!

Not hardly worth it for the Idaho Panhandle
1.) The fire road data is woefully incomplete, and some of the roads it knows about don't actually exist, which shouldn't happen as road beds just don't just disappear overnight.

2.) The colors are such that it's tough to distinguish a fire-road from a primary elevation line.

3.) It can't navigate to trailheads on fire-roads.

4.) Even if you buy a big memory chip, the software will only let you move a fraction of the US to your GPS. And if you want to change maps, you get to start over, which could be an hour-long download to your GPS.

All in all, I wish I'd investigated some of the free topo tools and data rather than buying this.
