YES. see the post a few posts from this one about finding new GPS maps. It is the best damn program I have seen for mapping routs and transfering maps. You can create exact waypoints with names and routes. THen you can actually print out a hard copy of a topo map with the waypoints along with thier names. FANTASTIC! I jsut got my nuvi 200 set up with the system and planned a weekend camping tri.
I am going to a familiar place but camping in a different lcation. I was able to mark all the possible camping possibiities along streams. I know where the roads should be, where they lead, and what they will offer before having to scout for hours. Although scouting is fun, I don't have the time for it this trip.
SInce I want to also fish a lake, I can know where I am in reference to any location now.
