Looking at maps
We were in Bolivia a few weeks ago. Tony gave me a disk from the Bolivian cartographic society. This is a military unit that publishes maps of Bolivia.
There are two groups of maps that look promising for uploading to GPS units. On is the physical maps (fisico), which is a standard topological map, and the other is named Mapa Vial (in a directory named Carretero. It is basically roads and rivers. Not as much detail as the topo map.
I will have to learn how to covert these into something the GPS will accept.
