Help ftechnolgically impaired soul - Garmin maps Russia Kazakhstan
 

Howdy,

I have been trying in vain to follow Colebatch's advice - I've downloaded mapsource, base camp , plotted my journey in osm...
Net result = NADA!
I'm flying to Europe in 5 hours with an empty Garmin adn a sore head.
If anyone has any spare time to councel me in uploading maps, or better still has the maps on their computer I would be eternally grateful.


Many thanks
Tom

Hello Tom
I don't know about mapsource etc.
I get my osm maps here:
Free worldwide Garmin maps from OpenStreetMap
that gives a gmapsupp.img which I copy into the folder "garmin" in my gps devise.(GPSmap 62s)
Maybe that helps.

Have you looked at this thread? http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hub...eet-maps-64135

Everything you need is in there.

You can add Walters waypoints before or after adding OSM maps to your GPS.
