Every summer a few VftTers travel to Switzerland, so I would like to introduce them to Freizeitkarte für Garmin-GPS auf OSM-Datenbasis, a free MapSource compatible topo map of Switzerland based on OpenStreetMap data. It is the result of a crowdsourced effort, and while not as comprehensive as the commercial maps I found it more or less adequate last year. Coverage of trails was incomplete, but I expect the coverage to be substantially better one year later.
The web site is in German, but even the lame translation by Google Translate ia adequate for understanding the installation instructions.
