![]() ![]() And within seconds of getting back on a highway, I could switch from TTMaps back to the regular TomTom software. I found that the combination of my TomTom car GPS (One XL) with the free applications TTMaps and USAPhotoMaps was extremely helpful for travelling off-road in the US. When preparing my latest trip to Colorado and Utah, I knew that I would be travelling by car on dirt roads in the middle of nowhere. On the other hand, a car GPS is very useful to find your way on highways and in cities but is usually not made to be used with topographic maps. This is especially useful with GPS units that can display topographic maps. Today, many people use GPS units when exploring the wilderness, mostly to help them find their way when travelling on foot and keep track of where they have been. Combining my TomTom GPS with TTMaps (bringing the ability to display topographic maps on a TomTom GPS) has given me what I was looking for. My experience has shown me that it is very easy to get lost when you take a wrong turn on a dirt road in the middle of the desert… So I was looking for something that could help me by combining the precision of topographic maps and the ease of use of a car GPS. Landscape photography often requires reaching places that are not easy to access with the main roads.
