Alberta trail maps

Post by dirtyboy »

Here is the link where you can find geo-referenced maps for Avenza. The link works today but they seem to change their web site URLs constantly.

http://aep.alberta.ca/recreation-public ... urces.aspx

You will have to use up most of your allotted Avenza free maps to load both Ghost and McLean. I believe that you are allowed to load 3 before having to pay. Too bad they don't publish them in Avenza store.

This appears to be the new product they offer. No more Garmin GPS mapping.

As dirtyboy mentions, the links are always changing. Here are direct links to McLean and Ghost maps for Avenza:

If you are a diehard Garmin user, the file is no longer updated or maintained, but the original GoA garmin file is 47 MB and I have a copy. PM me if you need it.

McLean and Ghost PLUZ Government maps compatible with Garmin and Others

Post by YYCExplorer »

If anyone is interesting in a copy of the Government GeoPDF trail maps for McLean, Ghost, Livingstone and Porcupine, that are compatible with Garmin GPS and some other smartphone apps (ie: locusmap).

This link has the conversions of the GeoPDF to KMZ files for 2023 and some 2022 maps:
