Mike,
Got them loaded and all 3 maps showed up on my garmin 450T. Everything worked as your instructions indicated.
Not quite sure how to open them though or whether once they are enabled that they are open? They are enabled and the topo map is disabled but, tried using the where to search and the POI search and input bloody skillet and whiskey springs and couldn't get them to come up. Do I physically have to be at the destination/location ie (bloody Skillet, potter county, or whiskey springs) for it to show up?
I am hoping I'm explaining that correctly.
Thank you again for all your help and patience.

There are no POI's embedded with the maps. You either have to physically be there or make a waypoint in the region and tell it to show the waypoint on the map and then you will see it.

If you leave the 100K map on you will see both and that can verify that it locked on the map correctly. But when riding its too much stuff on the display so I turn off the 100K topo map and just use the trail map.

We have the same unis so you should have no issues using these maps.

Mike,
Rode this past Friday and used your maps. They worked great!
Can't wait to ride Potter county and use the maps up there. Will be there all next week.
Thanks again for all your hard work on them.

Here is an example of how inaccurate the Potter County map is. The solid red is my tracking data from the GPS. The little squares are where I took pictures and used the program to geotag them. Some trails are pretty good, others go off in different directions then the map shows.

Sorry for the lack of clarity, the original image was too big to upload and I had to scale it down.
