I tried sending this last night but it bounced due to the attached files.. No now I am using photobucket links...:::<br><br>&nbsp;<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);">Also CO, AZ, NM, UT with a tad of bleed over into surrounding states due to the area selections, comes to 
269.6 MB required. So it would depend on how large a card you have. Mine is 1GB so I have most of the Western region in Topo and Steet maps on the 60cx.</span><br><br><span style="font-style: italic;">I have found it really depends on the area in question to know which is better detail..
</span><br style="font-style: italic;"><br style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;">&nbsp;If these come through here are two examples .. topo vs topo 2008</span><br style="font-style: italic;"><br style="font-style: italic;">
<span style="font-style: italic;">On set is Squaw Peak in Phoenix area the other is Mnt Lemmon in Tucson area.
