It's taken me almost a year to complete my project with my GPS Christmas present, but at long last I'm starting to put together the pieces:
- December 2004: receive Garmin eTrex GPS device
- June 2005: go on Big Sur hike with GPS device, taking many, many photos
- August 2005: load GPS data into computer using pygarmin, produce first Keyhole/Google Earth-loadable map
- ??? 200?: link GPS data with photos to produce the one map to rule them all
If you have Google Earth you can load this directly into it: Big Sur/Sykes.kml
Hike route (starting at Pfeiffer Big Sur parking log):
More hike route in the extended
