It doesn’t get any easier than this! We load all 10 our our South Dakota Region routes on a new USB Data Stick and ship it out. You can either load the files onto your computer OR if your GPS accepts data sticks, load it right into the GPS and go!
Detailed instructions for viewing the .gpx files on your computer can be found Here.
