NEED BETTER MAPS
Obviously you can't put all of Canada on a single DVD at a scale useful for walking or canoeing. Especially in areas remote from highways = most of Canada. If the mapping is comparable to 1:50,000 mapping the comparison shows the weakness of Garmin's offering. But there is nothing better available. I hope Garmin will continue it's move to simplifying use of custom maps to the point that scanned topo maps can be installed.
Pros: the best gps maps available
Cons: still pretty weak.
Recommend: YES

BEST TOOL FOR 3D MAPPING
I recommend this item to any outdoor activist who like to go backcountry skiing or hiking or even kayaking with TOPO Canada V.4 enjoying the review of his traces and routes on his computer afterward. BaseCamp which comes with TOPO Canada V.4 is a real modern tool to make cartography in 2D or 3D as TOPO Canada V.4 contains a DEM (Digital Elevation Model) for the whole Canada territory permitting wonderful 3D representation of the terrain. Enjoy flying around before going on expedition.
Pros: conviviality on modern computers, either pc or mac
Cons: the mac version is beta, so still some bugs to fix
Recommend: YES

SO FAR SO GOOD
Haven't had the chance yet to try our new Garmin 60CSX with the Topo Canada much except on a couple of local hikes but will give it a true workout this spring in the wilds of central BC. Am very pleased with the detail so far. Certainly far and away better than our old Bushnell GPS and it's meagre mapping - it was a joke....actually the joke is now on whoever stole the Bushnell from our truck! Also GPScity.ca had the best price for Topo Canada DVD than anywhere else I looked either in store or on-line.
Pros: much better detail than we had on our old gps
Cons: maybe too detailed? declutter on, still busy.

GARMIN TOPOGRAPHIC CANADA DVD WITH BASECAMP
Carte apportant des informations qui me sont très utiles pour les randonnées pédestres et le Geocaching. Et Basecamp est vraiment un outil facile d'utilisation qui permet d'exploiter la carte pour toute sorte d'activité.
Ma déception: je souhaitais avoir les principaux sentiers dans les parcs nationaux ou autres mais ce n'est pas le cas.

GREAT MAPPING TOOL
Garmin Topographic Canada DVD with Basecamp includes detailed topographical maps for all of Canada. This includes all city streets, forestry roads, small streams, power lines, .... I've found a few errors, but on the whole, it is very accurate. Maps use colour and contour shading. A program called Basecamp displays the map. By default, Basecamp displays very little detail, so be sure to set the detail level to 'high' to see all the contour lines and map details. I use the maps to plan back-country trips and on my gps in unfamiliar cities.
Pros: covers all of canada, very detailed, accurate

NEW VERSION OF TOPO CANADA - OK
I see quite a few fixes. But because I do a lot of outdoor hiking/climbing - and my job keeps me on the highways during most days - I see a few fixes missing. Even major highway changes are not in here. But many small off roads have been added. I cannot find any fixes in places like Jasper National Park. Same old.
The new 3D look is nice, but have not tried it on my GPS yet. This is a bit expensive for what you get.
Pros: small off roads added
Cons: no national park topo fixes

WORST UPDATE EVER FOR YOUR GPS
I've had a chance to use this "supposedly" newer software (yeah right). You'd be better off using a regular map and compass (a lot cheaper). At least, if you use a topographic map printed in 2001, well you know to expect anything to show on the map before the printed date.
Now, with this software, highways, roads and streets that were built 4 years ago (yes, 4 years ago) are stil not showing on this joke.. huh.. I mean software!
And thank God I used the software for free, otherwise I would have been pretty pissed of wasting over $100 for this. Not worth looking at it even, not until Garmin wakes up and delivers something reliable and accurate (for a change).
And please, Garmin, have the courtesy to provide a user's manual with your next "farce" would ya?
Pros: none
Cons: useless piece of cr*p, software not even up-2-date

MIXED REVIEW
I had a chance to use this new version of topo Canada in Northern Ontario while moose hunting and also for general use in Eastern Ontario. I am also use my gps76cs for Geographic Info Systems (GIS).
I found that in the area of Northern Ontario and Eastern Ontario that the road names reflect the old township names and not the new township and county roads. This makes it confusing as you have to interpolate the names to what the actual signs say.
I found that the road center line seems to be more accurate the majority of the time however strays when you are on a winding road.
I like the new spot heights, and geocoding along roadways. There seems to be more detail of features in Eastern Ontario. Contours could have a smaller interval as in Eastern Ontario the altitude changes are relatively small.
I had a problem showing the new mapping software on Mapsource. I downloaded the latest version from the site but it still didn't show. I contacted Garmin support and they provided a link to a newer version of mapsource which resolved the problem.
I initially was able to use the 3d feature of basecamp from the CD on my computer but decided to download the software upgrade from Garmin. After installing the update, the 3d feature did not work as an error indicating my video card did not support the product. This was mentioned in previous reviews. I will not be buying a new computer/video card to resolve the problem as there is no driver update for my 4 year old card. I don't think the developers took the user community's hardware when delveloping the product.
Pros: additional detail, spot heights,geocoding
Cons: contour intervals, road names, 3d software
Recommend: YES

A GOOD TOPOGRAPHIC MAPPING
Suite à mon nouvel achat du GPSmap 60CSx, j'ai obtenu un special $$.$$ de cette carte Topographic Canada DVD 2009. Je dois dire qu'elle n'est pas complètement à jour. Depuis 2007 l'autoroute 85 dans le bas St-Laurent est prolongée. De la même année, un super marché près de chez moi n'existe plus. Il y a même des rues dans la région de Laval qui furent construite depuis plus de trois ans et n'appaissent pas! D'autre part, ayant eu un autre GPS qui a rendu l'âme lors d'un accident, j'avais dans la même compagnie Garmin, la carte CITY NAVIGATOR North America (États-Unis & Canada). Un peu plus cher mais tu paie pour une meilleure qualité de naviguation! Cette dernière me dirigeait parfaitement sur les voies à sens unique. Contrairement à ce dernier achat, elle me dirige dans des voies où elles me sont interdites. Elle n'a pas le sens de l'orientation en ce qui concerne le sens unique! Bref, une lacune regrettable. Surtout à Montréal! Certes, pour le prix investi. Je peux l'intrégrer dans un autre GPS. Contrairement au CITY NAVIGATOR North America qui est exclusif a un seul GPS.
Pour ce prix offert à 50% moins cher que le North America, je vous le recommande!

TOPOGRAPHIC CANADA WITH BASEMAP
Compared to the earlier version, the new shading is a big improvement and now street numbers and more services have been added. In my area, Newfoundland, many of the highways have been updated and more streets and rural road including some trails are now shown. However, the large number of obvious errors eliminates any confidence in the information. Highways that have long existed and are shown on City Navigator for several releases are still not shown. Worse, there are a huge number of address errors, some very obvious, that should have been caught. In some cases the street numbers have been inverted so that the high numbers appear where the low ones should be. Consequently, much of the new services information in my area is incorrect because it is shown in the wrong place. Basecamp is crude and very poor in comparison with Mapsource. Mapsource should have been included in the release instead of Basecamp as Topographic Canada did not merge with my older version of Mapsource and I had to download a 56 MB upgrade. This product isn't up to Garmin's standards. It was created by a local Canadian company, DMTI, and in my experience, this latest release is less accurate than their earlier version. If you have the earlier version don't waste your money on this unless you just have to have the shading... which is visible only on my PC, not on either of my GPS units.
Pros: shading, street numbers added, services added
Cons: many errors, roads not updated, basecamp crude

TOPO CANADA V. 4
I really appreciate the quality of the topo mapping, the detail and shading, and the fact that it seems to incorporate street addresses, Points of Interest (Burger Kings, Petrocans et al.), park boundaries, and other items I used to have to go to MetroGuide to find. I remain a bit mystified about Base Camp, though, haven't found that terribly useful, maybe I need to play further. I perhaps naively assumed it was like a different MapSource, capable of communicating interactively with the GPSr. However, I have imported some files from MapSource into Base Camp and viewed them there, and via Google Earth, all works well...glad to see the V. 4 maps showing up as another map base option in my MapSource.
Pros: quality of mapping is great!
Cons: basecamp less useful than advertised

TOPO CANADA
This item recplace my old ver 1 copy of Topo Canada which had some problems. It has the newer graphicly enhanced views however the areas I frequent had no new data to show any updating of the maps. The newer format of having the whole of Canada on one disc instead of four (4) different regions as before, I feel is a step backward. I cannot just have the section I want without loading the whole thing. I see why there are many sellers of separated versions on the internet. Too bad there is not a help section with table of contents, that lists the files needed by areas of the country,then you can open and copy only what you need and not clutter up the system with uneeded data.
Pros: good as available
Cons: should be in separate sections

TOPO AND OREGON - A PERFECT MATCH!
I recently added Garmin Topo to my new Oregon. Yesterday I was riding along on my motorcycle when I went into some mountains and was really surprised and awed by the gps display - that Topo information adds so much more to the Oregon.
I'm used to using a 60CSx and the combination of the Oregon and the new Topo maps has made a huge difference to my gps experience.
The Oregon has a higher resolution display than the 60, so the Topo information is very easy to see and use. The 3D view is especially fascinating!
Well worth buying both Topo and the Oregon!
Pros: 3d views, maps are very detailed, yet easy to use

GARMIN TOPO CANADA DVD.
I found the installation very difficult and spent a huge amount of time on it. I still don't have 3D viewing as I can't find how to download Open GL 1.3. There were poor instructions and it was not clear to an only moderately computer literate person what was happening or what to do next. A written booklet would have been nice. I'm not sure the maps are much better than my previous version though some local errors have been corrected. I do like the shading, but need to work with it more. Also, I thought that having the maps on several CDs was better than stuffing the whole country into my computer, as most of us are only going to use two or three areas.

Well I was disappointed with the V.4, although it is a Topo maps many roads built right after V.2 were not added, I would have preferred to see more of the newer roads then added shade of green. 3D feature on Oregon/Colorado/Dakota not that great The only feature interesting is it include Metro guide. As for the Base Camp program, it is only a revise version of Mapsource. I give it a 4 rating only because if someone never had maps and need a set it is good.

NEW VERSION TOPO CANADA
I replaced the older version of Topo Canada with this one. I do not see any difference in the quality of maps or map details on my 378c vs v2. (There must be more detail because I could not download as many maps as the older version.) Also the software to download to the gps has changed and does not have any instructions, so you are on your own to figure it out - which wasn't difficult - but if this was your first experience with a gps, memory card and DVD software, you might find it frustrating.

CANADA TOPO - GOOD BUT COULD BE IMPROVED.
This is my first experience of using such a map. My main criticism would be that I did not know how big a memory card I would need to store the whole map. I bought a 2GByte card which will take about half of the map and is therefore O.K. - I can put the other half on another card. Some guidance would be useful. I also found that some roads around Jasper / Maligne Lake AB were not shown on this map. So there is a lack of detail. On the description on the web-site it was not clear how much city detail there would be versus real topographical (back country stuff / contour lines)info.
Pros: is an essential addition to the base map.
Cons: not detailed enough re trails and roads.

SUPERBES DéTAILS
Je me sers beaucoup de MapSource pour mes différents GPS (Bois et route) et l'ajout de ces nouvelles cartes est réellement un plus. Elles sont rtemplies de détails (restaurants, commerces, motels, etc.) et ce, même dans les plus petits villages et les coins les plus reculés. Je me sers souvent de ces cartes Topo pour trouver des adresses que je n'ai pas dans mon Nuvi 855 ni dans mes cartes City Navigator North America 2010. De plus les cartes sont beaucoup plus belles que les anciennes cartes de Topo Canada. J'ai téléchargé ces nouvelles cartes dans mon GPS Map 60CSX et tout a très bien fonctionné. Sur le DVD on obtient en plus le logiciel Base Map, mais je crois que ce dernier peut être téléchargé gratuitement sur le site de Garmin. J'ai eu de la difficulté à intégrer ces nouvelles cartes (en 3D, un plus) dans MapSource, avec toutes mes autres cartes. Le tout s'est fait automatiquement lorsque j'ai télécharger City Navigator 2010 pour mon Nuvi 855. Je n'avais pas trouvé le moyen de le faire et le soutien technique de Garmin au Québec m'avait dit qu'il croyait que ça ne se faisait pas. Ça se fait, mais comment? En conclusion, je suis très satisfait de mon achat, les cartes sont superbes et les détails surprenants par leur abondance. Tous vos Waypoints et tous vos tracés antérieurs se récupèrent en un seul clique et les symboles des Waypoints s'ajustent automatiquement. Ils ont pensé à tout. Je vous recommande cet achat, surtout si vous possédez un Oregon ou un Colorado qui prend en charge le 3D. Si vous êtes à la recherche de cartes avec une multitude d'informations et une très belle présentation avec en prime le 3D, allez-y, c'est un must.
Pros: une multitudes de détails et une image superbe.
Cons: la précision des certains sentiers.

While not as high resolution as the GPS Quebec maps of Ontario, this product does a very good job at identifying terrain changes and waterways. Map is routable and better than City Navigator in a few places. 3D shading works well on my Colorado.
Size of the map product means you cannot load the entire country at once, as it exceeds 4GB.
