I love basemap from a hunting standpoint it's amazing especially for a big piece of public land. It gives you directions on gps file depot on how to convert them to basemap

 

[Spellmajr]

I don't remember off hand how to do it. But I do remember there being directions but you have to read for them. Wish I had my computer or I would find it for you.

Sorry autocorrect. Basecamp

Seriously though I have gotten that to work with Basecamp but my Garmin screwed up. But if I remember correctly I just loaded into the GPS using the program and selected it as an overlay with the typical road map. It them showed trails and roads with all POI on it.

On the Android app Oruxmaps we had to rename a file extension but not for the Garmin, it just worked.

There is directions in the gpsfilesdepot readme file after you extracted it. Did you read It? Most don't and it has step by step directions. Like the Owner's manual on the Pioneers, thousands ask questions on Facebook when the answer is sitting with the machine.

When all else fails R.T.F.M.

I will try to see how it worked on my PC with my Montana this weekend maybe I can fumble around and figure it out, haven't loaded anything on that GPS for over 4 years, it always worked for me never had to mess with it.

How old is the computer? I've got a 3 month old one and it will not load on Windows 10 or edge. If you read the instructions on gpsdepot. It tells you to load it as my trails if it want load the initial setup. Got it to do that but it does not overlay correctly. Get momma to fix it! It loads on the 8 year old no problem
