Garmin Map Data Chip--Yellowstone Park January 4, 2009 K. Sanders (Montana) 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
If you are visiting Yellowstone National Park, or hiking Wyoming, Montana or Idaho you have to have this TOPO data card! Very easy to install. Covers all trails, and major roads inside and out of Yellowstone. A surprise bonus for the Yellowstone Park visitor is: this data card contains the name for every single geyser, geothermal feature, and major attraction within the park.
Excellent resource for orienteering. January 6, 2007 MacInTX (TX) 8 out of 13 found this review helpful
A great resource for those doing orienteering or other outdoor activities. Not only does it include topographical information but it adds many roads that are not in the Garmin base map.

MicroSD Topo card in Garmin GPSMAP 60Cx November 25, 2008 J. Dodd (San Diego, CA USA) 19 out of 19 found this review helpful
I used the Garmin MicroSD Data Card in my Garmin GPSMAP 60Cx on a two week hunting trip in Montana in November,2008. Performance was excellent after I called Garmin tech support to find out how to view the topo data (that would be drill down in scale until the GPS will display topo data).
The chips are pricey. I would have used a data CD but Garmin is not Macintosh friendly, so I needed to buy the chips for my hunt.
The chips are not marked as to data content, so I used a small ziploc bag to hold the data chip and a note on the contents. Otherwise your option is to install the chip in the GPS and then view the title.
Easy (idiot proof) good information for Hiking/Camping/Geocache February 16, 2009 Shannon Hill (Wild Wonderful WV) 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
I purchased this to up-grade the base maps on my Garmin. Easy, easy upgrade, just insert the card wait 30 seconds during initial installation and have all of the Northeast in the GPS. Having detailed topo, road, RR, powerlines and even hydrologic details is worth it when out hiking in the boondocks. I esp. like the information on springs and streams, it has precise locations of 4 springs within 1 mile of my house. It really makes geocaching with my son easier and more informative. With accurate topo and stream information it is much easier to figure out a way to hike into to an unknown 'cache. I am planning a trip out west and plan to purchase the appropriate card for that area to make outdoor activities more fun.
