Hi Patrick,<br><br>I'm assuming you're talking about the view on your GPSr. Here's what I say on the website :<br><br><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">The Southwest Trails mapset should overlay any other mapset present on your GPS unit. </span><font style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);" color="red">It is important to note that when you upload maps to your receiver, the existing mapset on the unit will be deleted.</font><span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 102);">
(Newer firmware versions on the Colorado and Oregon receivers allow for
multiple map files to coexist on the units, but unless you remember to
rename an already-uploaded map file, the new upload will be given the
same default name as the existing one and overwrite it.) This means
that if you want Southwest Trails to overlay City Navigator maps, for
example, you will need to upload the chosen City Navigator maps along
with Southwest Trails all at once. To switch between mapsets (if more
than one has been loaded to your GPS) simply toggle the hide/show
settings for the desired mapsets on your receiver.</span><br><br>This means that you need to also load any additional maps, like City Navigator, back on your GPSr when you load Southwest Trails. Otherwise, the only thing that will get written is Southwest Trails, and you'll only see trails.<br>

I haven't installed it yet, but looking at the example maps, I have to
say *drool*. I'd LOVE something like that up here.<br>

Some of you may recall earlier this year when I started a brief thread
about creating an overlay mapset for Garmin GPS receivers that contains
trails in the Southwest. Well, that project is now a reality, and I
have just released the first alpha version today! You can check it out
at : <a href="http://www.outdoor-resources.com/SW_Trails/" target="_blank">http://www.outdoor-resources.com/SW_Trails/</a><br>
<br>
This mapset is designed to transparently overlay any existing maps you
have on your Garmin GPSr. With this mapset, you can see, and follow,
and trails that are in your area. No longer do you need to download
tracks or routes to your GPSr when all you want to do is have the
trail. Assuming that your desired trail is in the current data set,
you're covered!<br>
<br>
I would very much appreciate people at least checking out the web page
and providing constructive feedback. This project is in it's infancy,
and there is lots of work to be done. But, in my own field testing,
it's proven to work pretty well so far. I intend to allow user
contributions in the very near future, so you can send me new trails or
corrections to current trails. Anything that makes it better!<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
