I have a free topo map for Vancouver Island area that I have used for a few years but I am now looking for a good and not so expensive topo map of BC.
I was wondering what do you guys use for your GPS...

I usually carry one paper copy with me which I can get for free from the government site. But I am not sure if I can get maps for my GPS from the same site. I probably wouldn't know how to install it.

I use the Hunt Buddy app. It has many maps you can download of any region including multipe satellite and topo maps right on the phone. The maps are available offline once downloaded and show your current position and MU and available seasons.

Thanks for the tip. I will check the hunting buddy app. Although I was looking for something for my GPS since I usually turn the cellphone off and put it in the backpack to protect it from the rain. The GPS can take a good beat and it is more weather resistant.
