Route Planning Software

Been using S&T since it was automap,and update every other year, love the way gpx files can be added

trailertraveler, I do use POI Factory for my Garmin. I haven't tried to import into the Undertow program but will give that some attention soon.
We just got back from a 5500 mile trip up to Glacier, Oregon, Crater Lake, etc. I used the old Trailer Life/Undertow all the way and it was my basic planning tool. It is a shame that Trailer Life and Undertow did not work together in an updated version of this good program.

The great advantage of this software is that the actual campgrounds become the basis of the planning. That is far better than just having a general mapping program. I plan my stops based on the campground information.

Thanks for the suggestion. I will give it a try.

padredw,

Can you import data (POIs) into the Undertow program? If so, maybe one of the formats available on the Discovery Owners Forum or POI Factory will work to let you add updated campground information. They seem to update the major systems like Good Sam, Passport America, and KOA at least once a year.

Wish I had seen this a week ago. I'm using the 2011 TL version, and just ordered the Undertow package.

Oh well. Back to looking for hatchet marks on the trees.

I'm still using the Trailer Life Directory & Navigator 2011 version. I like it because I can add new campgrounds or ones they don't have highlighted. I wish there was a newer version, though.

Can you tell me how many stops you can have on one trip? For example Google maps limits it to 26

With Streets and Trips you are not limited and can program as many stops or via points as you want. I use S&T along with Garmin BaseCamp to plan our routes.

here is the newest version of Undertow. It doesnot have as much information as TL version.

I use Micros Streets and Trips for main trip routing in conjunction with the Pharos GPS antenna.
I use te Undertow products for loacting campgrounds along with my Rand McNally 7710 GPS.

My 2011 MSS&Trips links campgrounds to Woodall's site.
