  1. Yayyyyyyy!!!!
    I've found the Holy Grail. At last I've worked out how to put my MTB
    trails onto maps that are viewable in Mapsource and on my Garmin GPS.

    Programs needed are

    mapedit.exe

    MapSetToolKit.exe

    cGPSmapper (runs within MapSetToolKit)

    The maps you make can be uploaded to your GPS using Mapsource. I made
    mine transparent so they can be seen overlaid on your normal maps.

    Good free maps are ShonkyMaps and Tracks4Australia.

    Why didn't you just upload them as tracks? Garmin GPS units can show
    tracks.

    You're limited to 20 tracks, it's better if you can make them as
    permanent tracks on a map. I want to map all the tracks in my area.
