A GPS can help you navigate the areas around you.
Garmin topo maps can help users get a better feel for the geological area around them. Topo maps are in-depth topographic maps which show elevation detail and any shifts in the land. Some of the topo maps only come on DVD for installation on your Garmin unit, but many are available to download straight to your hand-held Garmin. You can find a topo map for every region of the United States.
Instructions
1. Download the topo map to your computer after completing the purchase. An option to download it should appear after you finish the checkout process.
2. Connect your Garmin device to the computer using its USB cable.
3. Navigate to your computer's "Start" menu, open "Computer" and double-click on the "Removable Disk" drive. This is your Garmin.
4. Right-click on the topo map pack you downloaded and click "Copy."
5. Right-click anywhere within your Garmin's folder and click "Paste." Wait for the pack to transfer over.
6. Click the "Safely Remove Hardware" button in your system tray, then click the "Stop" button, to disconnect your Garmin. Unplug the USB cable from your computer.
