Garmin began rolling out Garmin Express v6.2.0 for the PC today. If you would like to update to the latest version, please visit the About page within the Settings of the Express application and select “Check for Updates to Express.”
This version includes the following changes:
- Users can now add a Monterra to Express if there is a SD card inserted.
- For Approach S1 users, we fixed an issue that would not allow the user to change courses following an update.
- Helped address an incorrect cycle map part number being installed to the Fenix 5x for AU/NZ users.
- Other minor bug fixes and improvements.
Me thinks they improved it. I used it two weeks ago to pre-route some locations and all I had to do was enter the location name and voila, BaseCamp found it. (example: Kansas Chalk Monument). Used to be I had to use Google Maps to locate, then match the BaseCamp map to that location.Maybe it's me but I find Basecamp to be quite good once I got the hang of it. ...
Thanks for the responses. While I am not computer illiterate, I am not comfortable trying to plan a 2 to 3 week trip on Basecamp and then have it fail.

My trip would start in Connecticut, then briefly to an area north of Toronto and then west to various national parks. The trip would end in Denver and I would ship my bike back to Connecticut.
If there is anyone out there who is willing to help me plan my trip via telephone/computer I would be more than willing to pay for that help. But one thing I could not figure out with Furkot is whether or not I would get verbal commands via my Sirius radio.
I am a disabled Vietnam veteran (Purple Heart/Bronze Star) but not disabled enough to not be able to ride a motorcycle for long distances. As I get older, I realize that I better do this trip soon or it will never happen.
Ditto. It also has the huge advantage of showing you your day's destination without having to locate that particular days ending waypoint.No matter what you use, you can make a route for each day instead of making one route for the entire trip....
