[Az-Geocaching] Back Country Waypoints

How about sending the waypoint file to the publishers?  They have a section
on their website for waypoint downloads but the AZ file is 'Coming Soon'.
Maybe this will make it appear sooner rather than later.  Then
azgeocaching.com can put a link to the publishers site.

I had thought about this, but wasn't sure if was going to be a problem.=20
I guess if we(the azgeocaching community) are going to publish the
waypoints for free download we should do it right and legally.  Does
anyone on the list know what copyright laws limit us to as far as
publishing a waypoint file from the book??

I'd appreciate some help/info if anyone is able to contribute before I
try to contact the publishers.

I notice the downloads for Utah and Colorado they have on their site are
for Maptech's Terrain Navigator.  Hopefully they don't have some
contract with them that would block us from listing the file.

Thanks,
Virgil
