I just downloaded GPSBable today and really like the polygon feature! I have a huge KML database of waypoints and want to download a small region into my old handheld Garman GPS. This software did the trick. It took some fiddling to get all of the settings right but it works as advertised. I'm thinking about loading Backcountry Navigator onto my phone and using the same method to load a subset of waypoints. Ultimately I will buy a GPS receiver and some topo software to use with a laptop.

This software kept me from having to write my own extract software. As a side note, if you are using the command line interface then creating a .bat file allows you to store your parameters for reuse at a later time.

Thanks for recommending it!
