OSM based Garmin map for Chihuahua state

Posted by rimugu on 3 August 2017 in English. Last updated on 24 September 2018.

I create a map for Garmin devices (tested in etrex) based on OSM information, including level curves each 10 meters for Chihuahua Mexico (plus southwest TX and southeast NM). It is mostly for offroad use. And incorporates all what I find in my ciclotouring travels in my mountain bike, my family road trips and everything I see is missing in the satellite images in iD editor. I try to keep it updated at least once a month. (https://libreriacrisol.blogspot.com/p/mapa-de-aventura-en-chihuahua-para-gps.html) I think I am the number 1 OSM editor for my state. And I encourage other people to use OSM based apps, like osmand or maps.me if they don’t have Garmin GPS I don’t know how many people actually use the Garmin map, other than me. But it is something I would have liked to have seven years ago.

Location: Chihuahua, Municipio de Chihuahua, Chihuahua, 31000, Mexico

Me gustaria extender la ruta Great Divide, como lo tiene Adventure Cycling Association, pero en Mejico. Veamos si el grupo en facebook “Ruta Senderismo México (Proyecto)” logra algun progreso. He agregado varios miles de kilometros y arroyos en lo que potencialmente seria la ruta.
