We do the planning on Streets & Trips,bigger screens and can double check campgrounds and other POI on the web. Once satisfied with route transfer to the Garmin in sections generally one or two days at time. Have to be careful, however on our last trip there were at least 4 POI or campgrounds located in the wrong place, causing much hand wringing. The Garmin was accurate for 3 of the 4 places, but only if the actual address was inputted, not the name of the place.
Can you explain how using S&T has a bigger screen or makes double checking campgrounds and other POI on the web that the other three programs I originally mentioned fails at. All three use the same computer platform so the screen size is the same and can be used while connected to the WEB for additional searches/info.
HINT: On potential CGs look at them on google earth (BaseCamp has a direct link now for any selected location in BaseCamp to see that location in Google Earth) and make sure the are where they are supposed to be and get the general layout and surrounding roads/neighborhoods. Sometimes the addresses might be the mailing and not the physical location.
