    How Many of us do this

    Use Google earth to explore bush or beach areas for suitable layup/camping spots+Oziexlporer maps+GPS
    Put all three together and it takes a hell of a lot of leg work out of a trip.
    Takes about an hour to find then set up GPS track and waypoint route then upload to GPS.
    Anyone else do this?

    I don't like google earth.

    Just brings back memories of all those places I USED to be able to drive and camp.

    I've looked to plan hiking trips but the free version isn't much chop resolution wise, around my areas of interest

    If you have Oziexplorer you can export to .kml format and view in Google.
