You ever get that GPS / laptop thing going?

Let me know what you got. I'd also like input from others:

Is that in the super secret section with all the uploads?

I forget how to get there.

How is that 6.0?

4.0 is pretty sick, 3D and all that. I cannot imagine 6.0

Stupid easy question:

How do you get that yellow highlighted line with red edges?

I plugged my GPS into the laptop and went for a drive, I drew a live map of all green dots, and my pointer arrow of which way I was going. Might have saved that I'll have to check.

Then tonight I took the GPS by itself, tried to "exchange" my tracks, it went, labeled it, but when I zoom in on the map I see no line at all of my tracks???

I can eat things that would make a billy goat puke, drop me off in the middle of no where and I'll not only survive but gain permission to wheel it as well :lol:

Seriously when I was in the Marines I went through SERE (Survive, Evade, Resist, Escape) and among other things we learned to eat termites, slugs, and ants.

Hey Paul check out this map I made, I used the topo 6.0 maps for the Poker Run and then copied the trail difficulty symbols onto the map after photochoping the symbols....I also created an extreme symbol

http://www.nea4wd.org/articles/index.cf ... CLE_ID=236

Would you like to use these for the Wayne's World Map?

Looks cool. We might be able to work those symbols in.

There's extreme sections on class 6 roads??? :shock:
