STATUS: GPS Files created and posted, cue sheets have been emailed.

 Below are the Garmin GPS file for that event. For general information on these files, see my webpage About GPS Files and Event Support.  

Note:  There have been recent problems with Garmin software and firmware resulting in routes being altered after downloading to GPS units.  When downloaded, these files appear to result in the correct routes on my nuvi 760 GPS (currently loaded with the most current firmware, software and maps.)  If you see any discrepancies, please send me an email.

This event will have two routes – 100km and 50 km (approx).
The GPS file contains 4 routes – one forward and one reverse route for each of the two planned routes.
If you need to manipulate or convert these files to another format, you should look into a program called GPSBABEL.  See my page “About GPS Files”  

If you have any questions, let me know.
