Maps ?????

[JohnMember]

Can someone point me in the right direction as far as getting maps off the internet goes. I’m looking for something more detailed than “Whereis” but so far all i’ve found is sites that want to slug you $$.

Cheers and thanks.

if you get over the paying for them side of things you can go to generally any camping or outdoors shop and get a topographical map, not too expensive and its yours. got fire road names on them too

[drewMember]

sometimes you can google and get travel sites with maps and activities.

so maybe search for the state park/ forest you intend to ride. or caravan park near where you want.

may get what your after.

failing that you’ll have to heed Mr450’s advice.

shonkymaps are available as a free download from a GPS forum http://www.gpsaustralia.net/ they have Topographical maps for NSW and Victoria and probably others (i havnt checked) good site for solving GPS issues like Trent said you do need to have oziexplorer or similar program on your puter.

Thanks all for the replies.

I have had a look at all of the sites and they all help.

I even went as far as registering with the GPS site, although you have to post 10 replies before you can access the maps section. How the hell am i gunna sound like i know what i’m talking about when i have no idea. I’m sure theres people here who know about that feeling.:woohoo: :woohoo:
