huasnaian, looking at that photo, it seems that you escaped the smoke -- excellent!
We have tried Avenza a couple of times -- it does not always work for us, but we will try it again.
The only trick that I would add to your description is that instead of creating new tabs for each map or app, I often create new windows -- I then set them up side by side, so that I can more easily cross-compare the info on one map to the info on another.
So, for example, I will have both the MVUM and Google Earth open, to see where boondocking is allowed and what kind of terrain it is.
There are keyboard shortcuts for looking at two or more windows, side by side, for both Windows and Macs. (I drive a Mac.)
The only limitation is the size and number of your monitors. I have one big monitor, which I often subdivide, and one smaller one. So I sometimes have three different maps going at the same time. This is a very high-tech method of acquiring a splitting headache, accompanied by acute eyestrain. ;)
