Can_38 Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 I have a Garmin dakota unit loaded with city streets map. This map does not show the river system (Montreal River) I fish every June . Does anyone have either of the two mentioned maps loaded on a Garmin device.

Can_38 Posted February 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 I've got Topo on my computer I use for my Etrex Can you zoom in enough to see the Montreal river as it connects up to lady Evelyn ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris.brock Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 yeah, it zooms right in, the actual connection has no detail though, just a blue line at Mattawapika Dam I tried to paste a picture of it, but couldn't figure out how to do it (if possible?) are you concerned about how much detail you can see?

Jon Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 You can also try Ibycus maps (free) or Backroad Mapbooks (paid). Here is a screenshot from Garmin Basecamp of the Ibycus mapping http://www.flickr.com/photos/91080279@N05/12250454075/ Link to Ibycus mapping web-site http://www.ibycus.com/ibycustopo/ Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirCranksalot Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 I paid the Ibycus guy $20 and he sent a DVD to me with topos for all of Canada. I guess I could have done it myself if I'd spent some time figuring it all out, but it didn't seem worth the bother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 I got the Ibycus mapping 3 or 4 years ago when it was downloadable from the website. The install was pretty easy. I think you have to use Bit-torrent to get the free one now but I assume the install process is still pretty similar. I don't know if the guy regularly updates his mapping or not. I assume the others are more current? Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 Yup, Ibycus is available on a number of torrent sites. I've also use the Garmin Ontario Topo v4 quite a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
