Garmin Topo US 24K West microSD/SD Topographic Maps

Garmin Topo US 24K West on microSD/SD delivers high-resolution topographic maps for the western United States, ready to load into compatible Garmin devices. Whether you’re planning a multi-day backcountry trek, scouting mountain bike routes, or mapping a weekend car-camping trip, these maps give a clear, high-detail picture of terrain and features across the western U.S. The data mirrors the level of detail found on 1:24,000 USGS maps and combines elevation contours, water features, roads, trails, and points of interest into a single, device-ready package.

How detailed are the elevation and terrain displays?

The product provides contour lines and elevation data designed to match a 1:24,000-scale topographic representation, making it easier to visualize ridgelines, valleys, and slope steepness. On compatible Garmin units you can also view 3-D shaded terrain for a more intuitive read of the landscape.

• Contour intervals that reflect fine-grained elevation changes
• 3-D terrain shading on supported devices for depth perception
• Elevation profiles to help anticipate climbs and descents

Which outdoor features and waterways are mapped?

This map set includes comprehensive hydrographic details such as coastlines, lakes, rivers, wetlands, and both perennial and seasonal streams. These water features are shown alongside parks and recreation areas so you can identify water access, fishing spots, and shoreline routes.

• Coastlines and lake/river shorelines accurately plotted
• Wetlands and seasonally flowing streams included for seasonal planning
• Parks, protected zones, and natural landmarks clearly marked

Can I navigate roads and trails with these maps?

Yes — the maps contain many routable trails and roads, from interstate highways to rural two-tracks and neighborhood streets. The routable data supports turn-by-turn guidance on compatible Garmin devices and helps with route planning off paved surfaces.

• Routable trails and rural roads for outdoor-focused navigation
• Major highways and neighborhood roads for trip linking
• Points of interest search for summits, campsites, towns, and lakes
