I'd like to get the coordinates of some small towns in Mexico - is
there a convenient source on the Web?

Thanks

Just try a google search on waypoints and sift thru the results.

Thanks for a great link - nice pics.

BibiMaps had a nice map of Puerto Vallarta, which I was able to upload
to my Garmin 60CS with IMG2GPS. Is there any way to upload both maps
from Mapsource and one of the downloadable .img files?

Thanks
