Hi Russ I have a little Perl script that will create GPSMAPSUPP.IMG files (suitable for a Garmin GPS) from arbitrary combinations of OSM tiles and contours. It pulls OSM tiles from http://openstreetmap.teddynetz.de:81/latest/img/ and contour tiles from the SMC site.
If you look at http://ulrichkuester.de/OSM/CoordinateToOSMTile.html and note the list of tile numbers you want (e.g. 63271825.img 63272005.img for the Lake District), and then at http://www.smc.org.uk/ContourMaps.php for the contour tile numbers (e.g. 14203054.img for the Lakes) and send them to me I can run the script for you and send you the .IMG files. Alternatively (and for anyone else who's interested) the script itself is at http://dl.dropbox.com/u/23033/OSM/OSM2Garmin.pl - I've only tested it on Linux but it should work anywhere you have Perl installed. It uses sendmap (free version from http://www.cgpsmapper.com/buy.htm) to do the actual map compilation so you'll need that as well. Regards Glenn.
