Campground POI's shown incorrectly
929079
RV Park and campground POI's are shown incorrectly to the SE (as much as 30 miles) from where they should be. Also many Canadian campgrounds are missing all together. The sites that I tested show up correctly on the older 2006 version.

Good quality but the northing coordinates are off by a full kilometer on the "west side" of the map..  if you look at ramsey cascades on the west side, it is just north of 3955. On the "east side" of the map, ramsey cascades is just north of 3954.  after cross reference of another online map, i found that 3954 is correct.  i would expect better quality and reliable information coming from national geographic.

I didn't know there are different versions of maps until I received this unit. Beware of the map description that said worldwide. They actually have three versions "North & Latin America", "Europe" & "Australia & New Zealand".  Unfortunately, this didn't show in the product description. So if you travel to different countries not covered in your purchased version, this one is not right for you. I have sent back for refund. Poor product description.

I bought this for a camping festival. Had a hard time setting up the two front poles. They're a bit too long to fit into the slots they go into. It does not hold up right the way its shown in the picture, the walls of the tent sag and fall on you. I'm 5'2, weight 98lbs and I had a hard time getting in and out of the tent due to the string in the front that holds it up, or attempts to hold it up. Next trip I take I'll rather pack my 2-4 person tent.

The book us supposed to be printed like that. I am trying to build the portcullis and can't get it to work correctly. So much for exploded views... tried to find some contact info in book but there is none. Oh well guess I'll have to figure it out on my own...

I liked the bigger maps but the middle grids are cut in two, making it bothersome. The index is sometimes wrong.

This is a good map as far as cataloging trails in a given area but there are many errors so BEWARE. These National Geographic Maps are a fancy reprint of maps from the US Forest Service which are cheaper and just as erronious but not as pretty. The error in these maps comes from not being updated since 1983, so trails have changed routes and new trails have been added. Make sure to take a good GPS with you in conjunction with the maps.

I don't know whether I was shipped an outdated copy, but this map is missing current tube stops as of July 2013. I love their laminated maps, but I prefer to have all the stops on mine!

The wood is great and would've been nice to display my coins, except for the fact that the led stands were set on the wrong side and the coins can't be displayed correctly.  I'm probably just going to take the legs off and display this in a flat position.

Be Forewarned! I recently traveled to Costa Rica with this map. In one area (Monteverde) particularly the map was inaccurate. It showed "paths" (per the legend) that are actually now graded and graveled roads. These can be easily traversed by even non-4wd vehicles (buses & compact cars).

Luckily, I had a local guide. When I showed him the map, he expressed surprise at how "out-of-date" it was. The map is dated 2002 and was supposedly revised in 2010. However, according to my local guide these paths had been roads since well before the revision. If I had depended solely on the map, I would have traveled MANY miles out of my way to reach my destinations.

The misinformation provided on the parts of the map I used lead me to doubt the accuracy of the remainder of the map. Truly, I now will be extremely cautious in depending upon any National Geographic travel map.

I wrote to National Geographic Society Maps after my return home. As of several weeks later, I have not received the courtesy of a reply.

Please do not depend upon this map if you travel to Costa Rica!

Similar to Delorme with more road detail.
BUT
Numerous point-of-interest errors (mostly duplicate names repeated in the wrong place) on the Savannah page.  I can't speak to other cities.

It is supposed to say "Five Pines Lodge" but the one we got just says "Sisters Oregon." The description is incorrect.

Design was not the one expected. World map.  Too big

There has been a glitch from the beginning that always want me to start my trips by going around the block first, no matter where I start.  Then it starts reminding me that it is out of date, and I can purchase a newer version.  Other than that it seems to be standard GPS data.

I ordered the Lightspeed Outdoors Vermont 4 person tent because of the easy setup, numerous skylights, nice porch area, and size specifications to accommodate a queen-size air mattress.  I set up the tent in my living room immediately after arrival. Setup was easy as advertised, but I realized during the process, I cut myself on something.  After closer inspection, I found two rivets on the poles that were not fastened completely and had sharp edges, (see photos).  I inflated the mattress inside the tent to check the fit. I was disappointed to find a very tight fit despite the dimensions listing 107.9" long by 83.86" wide.  I measured the a length of the tent as approximately 101" long by about 80" wide.  Since the floor pan comes up the side, it's possible the companies' dimensions include entire floor material not just the part that rests on the ground.

If it were just the defective poles, I would probably keep the tent and get the poles replaced.  The remaining quality and features are nice.  However, since I was really looking for something to accommodate a queen-size air mattress, I am returning this tent and will look for something slightly larger.  On another, and probably more important note, I plan to contact Lightspeed directly about their defective poles.  The danger of cuts from these poles probably warrants a recall.

8/2/16. I heard back from Lightspeed and they said they examined all other tent pole assemblies and found no other similar defects. That's good news as no other customers should face sharp rivets on the poles. They also offered to replace the poles or the entire tent. If it weren't for the size being too small, I would have taken them up on the offer.  I do appreciate their quick and thorough response therefore, I'm changing my rating to four stars. I still think they need to remeasure the floor size and place accurate measurements in their description.

I purchased this for our trip to costa rica, was a bad mistake! it repeatedly took us to the wrong locations. the road map was fine, but their was a lot of attractions, hotels, that were not listed on the map, or it took you to the wrong place. we were there several years ago and rented a gps with our vehicle and had no problems whatsoever, next time i will rent one from the car rental!

Some of the parts of the map did not match the other parts of the map. We had already hung it when we noticed. The map is coming off the wall. Not too happy with this product.
