  1. Have you tried the maps you can download from the Delorme InTouch onto your iPad or phone? The iPad or phone they becomes, via Bluetooth, your bif color screen GPS.

    It”s pretty awesome.

    • Will,

      I think I’m using what you describe – – my Android phone has Earthmate, which downloads Delorme maps. Yes, they are pretty accurate, but we still use a variety of sources to get all available information. Then we juggle the info, then we make a decision, and then we take our chances. You’re right, extemporaneous experiences are sometimes the best. And occasionally they’re at the other end of the spectrum, too, like the time we spent crawling out through an un-forecast snowstorm after we lost our generator AND alternator charging systems. But that’s another story :o)

    The Google Earth overlays were right on when we kayaked 55 miles on Lake Powell this spring. Granted, Lake Powell isn’t like a back road.

    Speaking from Baja dirt road experience, some of our greatest adventures were when we got lost!

    Love your ION reports.
