    REI Members get back an estimated $ 10.00 on this item as part of their annual member refund.

    The REI Member Dividend

    The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

    Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

    Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

    Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

    Comments about Garmin Topo United States 100K Maps DVD for PC/MAC:

    After reading all of the negative comments about the 2008 version of this software on the web, I thought that I would try the 2009 version, hoping for improvements. The user interface has changed. MapSource has been replaced by two applications: BaseCamp and MapInstall. I still prefer the old MapSource, but that may change as I explore the features of the new software. The bad news is that the map software has not changed. Everything bad that has been said of the 2008 software still applies. I conducted tests in Rocky Mountain National Park and western Boulder County. My position on the map was usually off by 300 to 500 feet with respect to man made and natural features. Depending on the time of day, the weather, and your physical condition at the time, this could range from inconvenient to dangerous. Also, many trails were missing, and some of the trails and secondary roads were based on information that was 40 years old or more. My recommendation: If the 24K software is available for your area, buy it. The 24K software is an excellent product. If you must use the 100K software, understand it's limitations and always carry a map and compass for backup.

    Comments about Garmin Topo United States 100K Maps DVD for PC/MAC:

    Honestly haven't put it to much of a test yet, but so far, I'm not seeing as much topographical detail as I expected. It's not like I'm seeing topo lines as I would on a paper topo map.

    I find the documentation very weak.
