[Az-Geocaching] Anyone using Garmin Topo 2008?

[ShadowAce]

I have found it really depends on the area in question to know which is
better detail..

 If these come through here are two examples .. topo vs topo 2008

On set is Squaw Peak in Phoenix area the other is Mnt Lemmon in Tucson area.
The red area in the top left shows which version is which in each picture..

You be the judge.
