Testimonials

"Let me say, I love the Backroads GPS maps! Incredibly accurate and well-notated. Much better than any other mapping I've found."
Sue Thomas – Sue's RV Adventures

"WOW there was a lot more detail than Topo Canada showed. Let me emphasize: a LOT more. If anyone is thinking that they might want to have both the Topo Canada and Backroad GPS Maps on the same card, you can do it, but I think that all you'll need is the Backroad GPS Map."
Greg Sue Owner Quads.ca

"I just came back from a two week vacation in the Rockies in the Grave Flats area in Alberta and logged over 800 kilometres with an ATV on the trails and found your mapping program very useful. It has much better marked roads and trails, making it easier to read on a small GPS screen."
Al Hall

"I love the backroad books as I am an avid atv'r, snowmobiler and angler. Along with my GPS I fearlessly navigate through some pretty remote wilderness using your books."
Travis Wright

"Backroad Mapbook maps have significantly more minor roads and trails than Topo Canada v4 and more of the road and trail networks are routable."
Ken Ganshirt Laptop GPS World

"Comparing Topo Canada, Ibycus, and your map set, I saw a lot I liked...generally a pretty great product that I would judge to be excellent value for money."
Rick Lowe Pegasus Geomatics

"Thanks to my SD version of the Backroads Mapbooks we were able to find a logging road (not visible from the boat or on our map) that was connected to the other road where we could quickly make contact with the ground team."
Peter Storck Mission Search and Rescue

"I've compared your new Backroad GPS Map for BC against Topo Canada V4 & Ibycus Topo 2.1 and your new Backroad GPS Map certainly appears to be the most accurate and complete. I've also tested the new Backroad GPS Map on Garmin GPSmap 76CSx and GPSmap 60Cx hand-held units and a Garmin NUVI 750 vehicle GPS and they all worked without any obvious glitches."
Murphy Shewchuk – Freelance Writer/Photographer

"I have permanently switched my Basemap to the Backroads card. It gets me everywhere. It's been easy to use."
Ryan Klassen of Ryan Maps

"We have 5 of these books and now also bought the SD info for the Garmin. Best money spent, we switch between the 2 types. We were recently in the Crowsnest area and carried the Kooteney book and southwest Alberta with us on the quads. SD card worked great and we knew the minute we crossed the border into BC, lost most of the detail, LOL."

"The backroads topo's are outstanding and I have been quite surprised at the level of detail in the unassigned roads and trails that show up...better than anything I have used... well worth the $150 bucks"

"I have used the back roads maps on my oregon for about 2 months now. It has worked great for back road atving and geocaching as well as used around the city. I have already recommended it to all my friends with GPS."

Backroad GPS Maps

The Backroad GPS Maps of Canada are designed to take you beyond the city and into the outdoors. With countless logging, industrial and bush roads, an elaborate trail system as well as thousands of recreational points of interest, no other Garmin map source provides as much detail for Canada's vast wilderness areas. We have BC GPS maps with 20,000 scale topographic maps, Alberta GPS maps with industrial roads and Ontario GPS maps showing trail systems and paddling routes.

Adding to our Garmin GPS maps is the patented Backroad Mapbook Points of Interest or recreation descriptions. This information makes our GPS Maps of BC and Alberta that much more useful since you can cross reference what fish are in the lakes, how long that trail is or what type of campsite you will be visiting. As an added bonus, you also get city details like roads, parks and points of interest to allow you to navigate with confidence of a good road and Canadian topographic GPS map taking you from your home into the backcountry and back again. You can even use the Backroad GPS Maps in MapSource and Basecamp.

With more roads and trails than any other source, people can finally get up-to-date GPS topographic maps for Canada. Currently we have BC topographic GPS maps which covers Cariboo Chilcotin Coast BC GPS maps, Kootenay Rockies BC GPS maps, Northern BC GPS maps, Thompson Okanagan BC GPS maps, Vancouver, Coast and Mountains BC GPS maps and Vancouver Island BC GPS maps.

New in the fall of 2011 we have added Manitoba GPS maps. Covering all of Manitoba with 1:20,000 or 1:50,000 scale topographic features and our patented Backroad Mapbook road, trail and recreation information, there is no better Garmin GPS map source for the prairies.

Please note the screen shots will vary depending on your Garmin GPS (the information is the same). Please refer to our Features pages for more detail on what each province title has to offer. Our FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) page offers more information on how our Backroad GPS Maps work with Garmin GPS units.
