Dirty Girl Addiction

You know you're in for a long haul when you're categorizing national parks.

EDITORS' CHOICE - APR '08

Big Nevada Loop - California/Nevada
Another fine multiday dualsport campout, 1,300 miles or so over 6days. Fully Ridable. Scary out in the middle of a huge dry lake bed, some dust and wind, Hit it too.

Create GPX files from Garmin's Mapsource
The previous article outlined how to collect tracks and waypoints with Garmin's Foretrex GPS unit. Here I'll briefly outline how to turn that data into a GPX file that can be loaded into SMR.

Collecting GPS Tracks for Under $200
As we all witness the mainstream emergence of GPS and personal navigation systems, I'm struck by the unnecessary complexity that still permeates the technologies, especially with regard to saving and exchanging files.
