If you want to take advantage of autorouting in the eTrex and 60 Cx series, you need City Select or City Navigator ( or an older version of Metroguide 4). A new version of CN is supposed to be out this summer and at that time CS will be dropped. You can also load the Garmin topo maps at the same time.
This will allow you route and navigate with the street maps and then switch to the topo when you get to the woods. Streets are shown on the topo but without names and can be hard to read with all the contour lines.
