In the MEMBERS ONLY forum I posted these files for Google Earth:
-Arches in Utah
-Thermal Hot Springs in Utah ,
-Water Holes in SW Utah,
-Utah Wilderness Boundaries areas.


I have loads more in the works too, such as:
-Falls
-Mines,
-more Water holes for Utah,
-Misc. in Utah,
-Lakes and Reservoirs for Utah
-Ghost Towns of Utah (although I could use some help for this one)
-Scuba Diving in Utah

I also have Canyoneering KML that list canyon trailheads and waypoints for a few canyons. More to come later.

I also have other notable "things" just outside of Utah - like the AZ strip, parts of eastern nevada, and southern idaho.

ALSO, I have another file which is known caves in Utah (over 100+ listed).

ALSO don't forget, that Sombeech did superb work with his file for nearly all listed mountainbike trails with maps, details, and links all within that file. Kudos to him! :five:

I really do think that a Google Earth forum would be great too. Or what would be really cool, eventually, is when a member joins the forum - a message would welcome him and have all these downloads at his disposal to discover Utah or something to that effect. I think that would be impressive and draw more people in to the site. Of course, we can keep some things secret...

What does the admin and others think of that idea?

BTW - all of this information is PUBLIC info.


Lastly, this program GPSBabel (http://www.gpsbabel.org) will convert .KML files (Google Earth) and send it to your GPSes, including Vista Cx, for free. Very handy, instead of manually typing them in.
