    Opinions on OnxMaps Hunt for Garmin 6xx series GPS

    Thanks for the info guys! Speaking of old fire roads/logging spurs... remember the old Metsker's paper maps ? Those were awesome. I still have about 1/4 of Oregon on those but they are getting ragged. Unfortunately they don't make them anymore. Cheers.
