      Comments about National Geographic TOPO! Outdoor Recreation Mapping Software - Iowa and Minnesota:

      If the trails you're looking for were established after the mid-1970s, they're probably not going to be on these maps. While I do agree the Topo mapping software is great when it has the trails, it's pretty much worthless if the trials aren't on your map. This product does not include the Superior Hiking Trail, which is one of the top 10 long trails in the country. If you�re thinking about buying this for hiking, make sure your trails are on these maps before you buy.
