Mine is the Garmin Etrex color. I'm using a program that came with the unit, all I do is plug it in and hit the receive from unit and it puts it all in there. Then I use an old version of Paint shop pro and turn that file into a jpeg. Sheesh its sounds like a lot of work.

Cool report Deej. I had a bear chase me last fall, and it definitely wasn't what I'd call fun. It was a black bear though, not a grizzly (like it really makes a difference, dead is dead).

I forget where I saw it online, but it was a spoof on a national park sign...
You are now entering bear country. It is advised that you attach bells to yourself to announce your presence and to not suprise them. It is also advisable to carry pepper spray for defense in the event of a bear attack.

Both black and gizzly bears inhabit these woods. Black bears are smaller, and usually have berry seeds in their feces. Grizzly bears are larger and more aggressive. Their feces smells like pepper spray and has little bells in it.

Awesome pics, looks like an amazing place to ride (minus the bears running around in the woods)
