    I am having trouble adding the boundaries of WMAs and NWRs in AR. I am wanting to have them on my gps so I know that I am on public land and can determine what the rules are for that area. I am able to download filegdb folders and shapefiles but cannot open them in basecamp so I can add them to my gps. I have a 64st. Any suggestions?

    Thanks

    You have two options, you can either convert the files you have to a format that Basecamp will accept or generate a new Track in Basecamp by manually plotting points obtained from the displayed boundary lines and then download a *.gpx file to your 64st.

    Assuming the files are *.gdb or *.shp you may be able to convert them to *.gpx using a program like gpsbabel which can be loaded into Basecamp
