ok guys , ive been looking around for a gps unit that i can use to track trails on 100 acres of land and i want to be able to print a map of them out or transfer them to my pc, so i can edit and re-design the trails. i cant seem to find any thing that fits my needs. im not looking for road maps or any thing like that . i just want to track were i go and print it out. thats it. can any one help me or point me in the right direction?

I used to use ESRI's ArcReader for a lot map viewing, but haven't for some time. I'm not sure what it's capabilities are anymore, but it might do what you're after. I'm now running arcmap, but it runs at least $1,200 plus depending on what extensions you buy.

I've been using Delorme Street Atlas USA with their GPS for a while. I'ts not perfect but we have mapped some unmarked roads with the gps.

I use a Garmin GPSMap60cs along with ExpertGPS. I can transfer my tracks to maps of aerial views. Then I can plot them out on my plotter.

A friend of mine found this free software called usa photo map . The software is easy to run and allows us to link with our gps units.

Jerry, thanks for the help, I have no idea why it didn't work the first time.
