I keep my MN Lakemaster chip in my gps year-round.

Mine isn't SD card compatable but I download my USTopo maps of the area I intend to ride. Most trails that we encounter are on there plus it indicates potential wet areas as well as elevational changes.

i have the 2006 lakemaster.that should work.maybe i'll go for a little ride today and see how it works and shows things.

I bought the Topo chip for my H20. I don't use it for the lakes, but comparing side by side with another, it seems to have everything the lakemaster has, but includes the surrounding states. I'm not 100% that it includes everything the Lakemaster does, but I couldn't tell the difference.

If you plan to ride the first weekend in April............you just missed it.

I have an H20 also, In the winter I leave the lakemaster chip in and in the summer I switch to a road map chip. I dont know what brand or model this chip is my father programed it for me off some computer software he has. The road chip is better for wheeling because it has every trail you could possibly drive a 4x4 pickup down in MN WI ND SD IA and eastren MO. Only problem is it has alot of private roads on it too so Ive wound up in alot of peoples yards because you cant tell its not a road untill you are in someones yard!

thanx for all the responces.so now i gotta make up my mind on which 1 is better.what would any 1 recommend for the atv to ride trails and such?

The GPS is going to work the same no matter what chip you have in it. It is just a matter of having the fancy graphical maps that show what you want.
