That's a mouthful of a title. More and more there are folks with no computer and only an iPad or Android tablet. This article discusses how to use/open zip files from sites which offer free GPX tracks. Because iOS does not have a traditional file management system it can be tricky. This article demystify's the process. Once you do it a few times it is easy.
I am linking to the article so there is one source which can be kept up-to-date. If the Overland Bound team would like to post the original within the forums or outside let me know.
I have years of experience using Gaia GPS. It is the sample app in the tutorial but others can be used. I also own Hema Maps, Motion-X GPS, Pocket Earth and a few others. I am other a supporter of quality applications so I own the "Pro" versions of WinZip and iZip which are referenced in the article. The free versions do work as well and the process is the same.
Enjoy,
Chris
