By Alphajim from Alpharetta, GA on 06/17/2009 Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: It doesn't seem interactive at all. It is a detailed map but over ten years old makes it out of date

By Bud from Montana on 06/08/2009 Best Uses: Backpacking, Car Camping Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Minimalist Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: Apparently this map software was not for windows XP, but nothing in the sales BS indicated that. I did get it loaded & will use with xp after some difficulty. Does not integrate with the Geographic maps I already have. Cheap, got what I paid for.
By flynbike from cary, nc on 06/04/2009 Best Uses: Trash can liner Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Minimalist Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: Could not get anything out of this that a paper map wouldn't do better. Definitely was not going to download into my Garmin GPS which is approximately 10 years newer than this software.
fun to explore; confusing arrangement By Sean from San Jose, CA on 05/24/2009 Best Uses: Backpacking, Day trip Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Minimalist Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: The propaganda that comes with the cd-rom claims that one can download free trails into the map software. I tried repeatedly and exchanged several emails with the manufacturer. After a confusing back-and-forth in which I had to figure out which code to enter into their website, where, download what additional software, etc. etc. I am STILL not able to find the free trail maps they claim are available. Moreover, after several hours playing with the maps, I'm still learning the somewhat awkward "tools". For simple uses this is very helpful. Just find where you want to go, check the elevation, print the map. More complicated uses (printing a map with a route, for instance) take some learning.
By JD from VA on 04/20/2009 Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: This was an old and out of date copy of a single park in the listed states, nothing outside the state was shown. You would be able to get adequate general terrain maps with a really good printer. Would recommend getting real trail maps though.

By Chuck from Allentown, PA on 04/11/2009 Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: Version 2.1 of Topo software from 1999. Version or age should have been noted in description. Cannot get support or upgrades for software this old from support web site. Price was attractive, but if you are looking for current data, forget it.
quite old but looks useful By Sudarshan from North San Juan, CA on 04/09/2009 Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Must have been made by company which preceded Nat. Geog. Works ok on my computer. Some offered services seem to be obsolete.
By SJR from Stow, Ohio on 04/08/2009 Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: There is so little to it I can't see how anyone could find it useful.
