You can find the answer to your question by viewing the GPSrChive > Tread > Specifications page.

The Continental Divide map I purchased from GPSKevin works great in my 66i, XT, and Tread. 👍

That is NOT a Garmin Custom Map, but rather a collection of tracklogs and waypoints, and therefore not pertinent to the original question:

For more information on Garmin Custom Maps, please see GPSrChive > How To... > Maps.

I had not seen the GPSKevin maps before, so thank you for bringing them to my attention!

Doh, apologies for that! Please feel free to delete! :oops:

I will now go learn about Garmin Custom Maps vs the gmapsupp.img I got from GPSKevin.

Thanks!
