i recently bought this GPS. i'm looking for the best topo software out there for use backcountry skiing around the northeast (vermont, NH, Maine). the garmin software called "TOPO US 100k" for the US does not look that detailed (they have demo's from their website: https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?pID=28229&pvID=29597#coverageTab)

any other suggestions? will other vendor's topo software (ie. national geographoc) work on this product? thanks

Well I had this GPS, and it was stolen out of my truck along with a bunch of other gear (Doh!). I now have the new oregon 400t. I have been downloading free gps topo maps from gpsfiledepot.com. Check it out! I have the 100k topo maps on disc, but you can get the more detailed 24k topo maps from this site... for free.
