GPS & Digital Data Discussion / Do Garmin city navigator maps show hotels and restaurants and OSM do not ?

Has anyone used City Navigator as a base map on a ACA route ? Can you just " scroll ahead" and see what  hotels campgrounds and restaurants are coming up ?

Gear Talk / Tent choice for Northern tier

« on: March 06, 2017, 03:35:51 pm »

I have a choice to make between my two tents , a eureka backcountry 1 = green ( great for stealth camping) roomy and spacious, freestanding 3 pounds 14 ounces  and my new one , a big Agnes fly creek high volume 1 = bright yellow and silver - definitely not stealthy- roomy enough to sit up and change clothes in but not spacious, not freestanding -a svelte 1 pound 14 ounces.  I am thinking there's not a lot of need for stealth camping on the northern tier and I like to travel fast and light. I don't plan on spending much time (awake anyway) in the tent.  I also have a feeling since I won't be pitching it in beach or desert sand the freestanding won't really come into play.  I plan on taking the Big Agnes - any advice from Northern tier veterans?
