Does anyone know a good place to find GPX files for the Greenstone Ridge?

Check out Mike T's website (a forum member here). I think he has GPX formatted info.
http://www.isleroyale.info/
I also found these with a Google search, not sure how useful they might be:

http://www.everytrail.com/view_trip.php?trip_id=176989
Keep an eye out. This thread might get moved to a more appropriate forum.

The waypoints I posted awhile ago can be found on the board here:
http://www.isleroyaleforums.com/viewtop ... &hilit=gps
They are under "General Questions and Miscellaneous"
I have updated many and added quite a few in the book, but there are a lot in the ones previously posted.

Mike:
The links are broken as the forum reports the attachments no longer exist.

Thanks Guys...
Ed,
I went to here (
http://www.trimbleoutdoors.com/ViewTrip/1084161) but I cannot figure out how to download the file. I have a login, but that did not make it any easier. Any tips?
I am not sure if everytrail.com is down now, but I cannot get to them.
MikeT,
I found your re-post. Thanks, this will help a lot, but I was looking for the the trail from Windigo to Rock Harbor along the Greenstone Ridge, just like in trimbleoutdoor.com above.
Mike

I did not take the time to register at that website but there was a link to download the GPX file as well as a Google Earth KML file. Are you saying the link does not work? If so then I don't know other than contacting the website.
All the waypoint data in LON/LAT format from the GPX file is also listed in a table labelled Points of Interest. You could probably create a GPX file from that since I think they are ASCII//TEXT files.
BTW, the article thanked the NPS for the GPS data. I wonder what that meant. Does anyone know if/where this sort of data is available from the NPS?

Hi Ed,
Thanks for you help. I see what it is, the free membership cannot download the file.
