Best Uses

    Comments about National Geographic Weekend Explorer 3D - San Diego Area, Anza-Borrego and Santa Rosa Mountains:

    I love his program. They are easy to use and they save you money in the long run (from not buying other maps). Downside is that you can't transfer the routes/waypoints to my recently purchased Garmin Etrex Vista HCx. So I returned the Etrex.

    I like this program so much I ended getting the whole state of California and gave this one to my friend.

    A must for any avid explorer.
