We are continuing to expand the NY and PA snowmobile trail maps with additional trails sent in by some very motivated snowmobilers.

Thanks to all for your early season track updates to make your maps accurate for what I hope turns out to be a very good year.

Version 8.0

This version adds Quebec Canada to our list of map products. Our Quebec map is introductory and contains 7,700 miles. This version also added additional trail mileage to our Pennsylvania map, no other maps were updated.

Version 7.2

We received a number of tracks from customers since our last release so you can have the latest GPS trails for opening day.

The Maine snowmobile trail map was updated in the area of Streaked Mountaineers Snowmobile Club, Bowdoinham Snowbirds, Sabuttus Mountaineers, Rumford Polar Bears, Moosehead Riders in Greenville, the Windham Drifters, Cumberland Moonlite Sno-Skimmers, Raymond Rattlers, Gray Sno Wolves and Standish Sno-Seekers snowmobile clubs. The New Hampshire snowmobile trail map was updated in the area of the Powdermill and Evergreen Valley snowmobile clubs. Vermont's VAST snowmobile trails updated in the areas of Arlington, Wardsboro and East & North Dorset.

We also received additional GPS tracks for our new Pennsylvania snowmobile trail map.

Version 7.1

Snowmobile trail map version 7.1 has just been released with changes that rolled in over the Summer.  122 miles of new trail were added and more importantly, 66 new gas, food, lodging, trailer parking, etc. points of interest added to the map.

This release requires Garmin BaseCamp or MapSource to install the map to your Garmin GPS.  Our installer that you download from your website account no longer has the "Install to GPS" option. This change was necessary because Garmin has changed the map storage location on some of the newer models causing our installer option to fail.

Version 7.0

We are excited to release version 7.0 of our New England snowmobile maps.  You will notice a new look and the addition of the X Package logo to these products.  The X Package is a cross platform product installer that includes an improved installer that is quicker and easier to use, a new Garmin compatible background map that can be used as a reference for your trail map in Garmin MapSource, BaseCamp or on the GPS itself.

We have two new tutorial videos, one that demonstrates how to use the new Windows installer and the other shows how you can use MapSource to view your trail map overlaid on the new background map and how to install one or both maps to your GPS.

Watch the Windows Installer tutorial video.

Watch the Garmin MapSource demonstration video.

The "cross platform" installer means in addition to the Garmin maps you also get the same map data in other formats compatible with Google Earth.  You also receive data formats (KMZ, GPX, OBF) that are compatible with GPS apps for Android and iOS.

The X Package has installers for both Windows and Mac OS X.
