I am having a heck of a time finding a way that I can lay tracks from my Rino over google maps or any satellite imagery maps........

Anyone know if this is possible with a freebieware??

I have Garmin Topo's but would like to see it on sat. images.

1st do you have google earth installed, it is free.
If so when in mapsource from Garmin select the view menu and on the bottom of the list select view in google earth.

If this does not work you may need to uninstall google earth or you can save the file as a *.mps file and then open that in google earth.

good luck

If any of you want to waste a few hours, check out the google earth flight simulator......you can fly over all your favorite spots and give them a look from the air. Pretty dang sweet!
