The lack of detail is one of the reasons that I don't have topo's loaded on my garmin. Before you shell out 120 dollars for the cd you might want to check out "thegpsstore.com". They have the cd for 99.95. Another neat thing is that they have topos on a mircoSD card for 79.95.

    Yep

     1:100,000 as I said, but the elevation profiles are not standard for 1:100,000 maps.. Meaning the contour lines could be 40', 80', 100', 30 meter, 90 meters etc...

     Looking at the online tool it looks like 163 feet per contour line in the demo version but I am trying to find out if this is the same for the purchased applicaion.. 

     1:100,000 is what I said, now can ya tell me the elevation contours?

       Does anyone have this product?

       If so, could you let me know what the contour intervals are?  I was looking online to possibly buy this for my new GPS and I see they are 1:100,000 maps, but I cannot find anything mentioning what the contour intervals are. 

       The online map viewer seems to be set at something like 163 foot elevations and I wondered if the maps were the same.

       Thanks in advance.
