You can convert these to .png or .jpg etc to use in mapping programs such as OziExplorer using ABCAmber.

If you can get them in your GPS, please post how you did it.

The new road/ highway south of San Felipe (built in 1982) is shown way wrong.... as well as north of Puertecitos, the airport(s) location(s), Las Minitas, Castañeda, ...

Amo, actually they show some of Shell Island (see the barrier island next to the word Estro Percebu)... Oh, Sarah says thanks!

Also -- for a comprehensive Mexican Map site which includes all the geographic information as compiled by INEGI (Mexican Government) go to this site and practice your spanish -- there is a wealth of information: http://www.inegi.org.mx/inegi/default.aspx?s=geo&e=03

Here is the map with my GPS track in red. The red track to the east near Puertecitos where the cursor arrow is, was a run on the beach. The rest is on the pavement.
