Too old school...

Time to get a new GPS and load up the topographic map or even airphoto's to use as an underlay.

No, I haven't my self done it yet but at the shop I saw a Garmin Zumo 660 with the topographic maps so that was the unit I got. When I save the money it is the first thing on the list, (just under centre stand, handguards).

All the data fits on one of them little mini SD thingo's which you need for carrying the MP3 tunes anyway (always good to have a bit of Elvis (gee it doesn't seem like 33yrs - RIP) in your helmet on a long trip).

And you can zoom in and out, it works well but the only problem is you can't see everything at once to "get the big picture".
