I use WAMS website to suss boundaries of public blocks and put grid refs into garmin 62s
Thanks mate i'll check it out
Most smart phones have a built in GPS. Download the app from "NZ Maps" and you can track yourself on the standard topo map. Point to bear in mind though is that your phone as in telephone may have no coverage but the GPS will still work unless you drop into a shitty gully...
I got a 62s from the gps guy in chch with maps and doc boundary's already loaded on it:)
Hey bud, Yeah i had my samsung galaxy with me but it was struggling with all the tree cover. I figure If I spend a bit of money and get something with a better GPS antenna it might be more accurate and help if hunting next to boundaries. WIll check out that app though. Cheers :)
