more about use of user points in Costa Rica



I must publicly thank Rich Irwin for the many points he recorded along the rivers and channels to Tortuguero, where we are now staying. From what I can tell, he recorded points in April 2007 and I recorded points in December 2004. With no maps, these points are precious. Our friend once called them GPS foot prints. I like that term.

One of Rich's points was, 7 meter boat with HP engine or something like that. Another was 3 meter crocodile. I wasn't sure what category to update that too.

I did record a replay on my accessible GPS for part of the trip so you can hear these points, our speed up to about 43 KPH and even altitude as we rose from sea level inland. The others in our boat enjoyed hearing my blurts of information as well. I of course recorded many new points and an audio file of the boat ride as well as posting the GPS replay.
