sound good

OK today i went an purchest haha a GARMIN NUVI 205 ,now i have to figureout how to use the dam thing haha, so what do you guys think about the garmin nuvi 205 ?

the 205 is an ok in-car unit made solely for street navigation. might as well turn it off when you hit the trail tho.

you can get a topo program for it.

and the 255 i use (that my GF took to freeport tx with her....) works great!


let me see if i can find you that topo program :balloon:

here ya go!

you can also use the pre loaded topo maps(which are okayish) (does not show elevation lines, but does show elevation, brooks ect...) by unselecting metro map.

another program is called easy GPS.... its a free decent program used mainly for way points only tho....

it allows 500 way points to be stored on the nuvi 205

WOW thankz man, lot's of help i need it hahaha

i got a simple TomTom and it shows most of the trails,, didnt even know they all had names hahah

the garmin nuvi is great for south jersey trails , most every trail back wharton state forrest is on a map and shows up on the gps , mine works great back there , i also do alot of geo caching so i have a hand held delorme pn-40 wich is amazing for being out in the woods for all the un marked places

thankz for the info DEVILSTOY .
