Thank you for posting the links Mark.

Is anything similar available for the atv trails?

I have an old Magellan GPS that I use with my Raptor during the summer and fall months. Could add the map to the nuvi and use that instead.

The 2015-2016 version of iMotoneige is available now for both Droid and iOS. Appears to be better than last year with with much improved zoom capabilities. Last years map was not Hi-res enough to zoom for fine detail.

[markusvt]

The links in my post above are FREE and the maps are very,very, very good.

Thanks GutZ. All installed. Did you notice any big changes? I saw several yellow trails over ice that are new.

[MrGutz]

I avoid the Yellow Snow and Ice!

Have not installed it yet, I just found them and downloaded them, I will do it today.

GutZ

[Shane]

Sorry for these silly questions but I am a technology moron.

1. I have a GARMIN Nuvi. Which app do I choose? I assume I do it through a PC and therefore choose the PC app?

2. Do I delete my old maps?

3. Will I then lose saved waypoints?

Thanks again for the help.

Shane

[easyrider]

Yes, PC

It's your option to keep or delete your old map. Might as well delete it once everything is OK with the new download.

No, you will not loose any saved waypoints

[MrGutz]

It says I have plenty of room but it wont install due to room issues.

I have get a hold of Garmin.

Tried the " for pc " and getting message "404 file not found"

Tried Tilou's " pour les pc " and getting " we're sorry, but we can't preview zip files"

Am I doing something wrong? from everyone's response the process seems so simple.

Hey JG,

Need to update my gps and will walk you through it once I do mine.

Edited January 28, 2016 by hparaptor

[MrGutz]

This should be the latest version

https://app.box.com/s/ndp4o837hnoap86tfei1x1hr4b0zv7n2

v8.0

GutZ

[Trailblazer]

Sorry GutZ that's a no go too

This is what comes up

https://app.box.com/s/ndp4o837hnoap86tfei1x1hr4b0zv7n2

Not sure if I'm the one doing something wrong here or something not in my computer to read it perhaps.

[Andyman]

JG I tried and could not get in either. But I think I can help you as I have a copy. Send me a pm.

Andy

[MrGutz]

I'll put it on my server and give you a link.

GutZ

[MrGutz]

maybe there is a newer version.

let me poke around.

Hi Gutz V 8 is the latest. If you would put it on your server that would be great as it is an exe and I can't email it that way.

Andy

[MrGutz]

I don't see one.

Try this:

http://www.trailz.net/pub/

then down load the v8 version.

save it and extract it and run it.

GutZ

[MrGutz]

.exe usually get flagged by AV apps.

Let me know, I'll extract it and put it on the server if you need it.

Thank you, MrGutz. Downloaded the file and had no issues after installing Garmin Mapsource.

Reformatted my hard drive after number of files were damaged and had to reinstall Garmin Mapsource. Latest version from Garmin would only install with a qualifying product. Recall I had topo 2008 kicking around and installed that first. No problems after that.

Mapsource uploaded V8 to the Nuvi 550, but deleted the earlier versions. Strange.

Also, for some reason the maps looked like they were missing alot of the interconnecting trails (local ones specifically). Then realized my resolution was only set to medium. Changed to highest and all the trails appear. I'm good to go.

JG,

Followed the PDFs located in the default installation directory (C:\Program Files\Sentiers Motoneige 2016 v8.00) and had no issues.

Can find mapsource here: http://www8.garmin.com/support/download_details.jsp?id=209

Believe Garmin Basecamp is functional on systems running newer versions of windows.

Link is here: http://www.garmin.com/en-US/shop/downloads/basecamp

Has anyone used basecamp and did you have any problems? Thinking of upgrading.

What is the best gps to get for my 2016 ski doo blizzard 20th the gps glove box ext. Can we use one that you would get at best buy that was made for a car, or do we have to get some thing special because of the cold. I see that you can wire the gps right to the sled. Skidoo says the montana but it is 700.00. There must be something with a bigger screen that can be used,,, anybody have some good ideas.

If you can find one I got my Garmin Montana 600 for $330. The 610 replaces it and is much more expensive. If you want to go cheap you can get a used Nuvi on eBay or a new Nuvi at Best Buy. A Nuvi is not a full "mapping" GPS and has some limitations compared to a mapping GPS. Many users don't mind limited Waypoint and Track Log features using Nuvis. I use my GPSr around water too so waterproof is important to me. There are several threads on HCS about new GPS users working though the kinks with a Nuvis and track logs and routing on sleds. Some Nuvis combined with some maps do not work well with Track Logs.

[Trailblazer]

I just bought a Montana 680T last week, I must say for the money 779.00 CDN + 15% of tax im not impressed, not even a North American road map on it, there is a Topo but for US only, useless if sold in Canada, so basically another 250$$$ for a North American and snowmobile map to be loaded. It's going back to the store, my Nuvi 550 is much less complicated to use and Tulu and Biscuit maps can be loaded much easier, had no success loading with the Montana.
