most of the people i know have garmin. we have alot of maps of trails near caddilac. most you could drive a car down. but very scenic. pm trailfanatic. ask him about the m triangle maps. perhaps he could email them? im not sure if easygps will convert them or not. jarhead or greybeard are the gps wizzards on here(i can barley dial a cell phone).
perhaps they could help with conversion from garmin to magellan?
also there is an orv park near caddialc now too!
good luck

Easygps says that it will talk to a Magellan Explorist 500.
You want files in GPX format (file ends with .gpx) for the tracks to load in.
