With the advent of Google Earth it would be nice to be able to attach .kmz file types. kmz is Google Earth file format for gps waypoints and routes. I have a garmin .gdb file of a hike route that I converted to a .kmz file to view in Google Earth but I cannot attach it since it is not one of the allowed file type. In my opinion Google Earth is a fantastic program for hikers to share gps routes.
KMZ's are on the list.
That was quick.

Agree...Google earth is a great program. Dont need to convert anything to kmz though.
It reads gpx track files straight from your Garmin.
After connecting the GPS to my PC I load this file to see my trip overlaid on Google Earth sat imagery.
G:\Garmin\GPX\Current\Current.gpx
