[Rockhounds] canadian topo's for gps

[Tim Jokela Jr.]

Check which maps your gps requires, some, like Garmin, seem to allow only 
one brand.

The MapSource Topo Canada is a good map, $150 max, half that if you buy it 
with a unit.

I also have SoftMap Ontario Topo50, which Garmin doesn't accept.

http://www.gpscentral.ca/accessories/mapsource.htm is a good place to buy, 
they ship blazing fast.

http://www.radioworld.ca/ in Toronto is where I got my gps unit, they offer 
package deals so you get the maps cheap, but were out of stock when I 
ordered so I got the map from Calgary.
