Excellent detail

Rating:****
This product is the 1:24k topo maps on a sim card for insertion into the gps (Oregon 400t) adds much desired detail to map display, use is transparent, once installed works well and moving from default maps 1:100k to 1_24k maps is automatic.

One issue is that the sim does not come with mapsource, so to use your pc to plan routes and upload to gps you will need to buy another garmin product that has mapsource on it - more $$.
