Can I purchase a cd rom that I can download into my computer that will allow me to get accurate waypoints with laptop cursor from a map displayed. I would like to then manually create waypoints on a handheld Garman E_TREX. The area of interest is Broome Cape leveque Mitchell Falls Kalumburu Wyndam including Gibb River Road. I have limited computer skills and would find that I could manage a system as such

g,day borris. ive got a garmin etrex legend , and i bought the mapsource software for it. its pretty easy to use once you get the hang of it just open the program plug in gps and choose the areas of interest . i do not know if this software is accurate enough for what you are after but ive found it to be pretty accurate when ive used it.

I sent one final shout after him to stick to the track, to which he replied “All right,” That was the last ever seen of Gibson - E Giles 23 April 1874
