    1. Rename "Greece zagori.kmz" to "Greecezagori.kmz" (no spaces between letters or numbers)
    2. Delete both custommaps folders from Oregon's internal memory and microSDcard
    3. Open Basecamp, right click "my Collection", click "New List Folder" and name the new folder "KMZ"
    4. Drag and drop "Greecezagori.kmz" on "KMZ" folder
    5. Connect your Oregon and wait for BC to load its data
    6. Drag and drop "Greecezagori.kmz" from "KMZ" folder on Oregon's "internal storage" and wait the copy process to finish
    BC has now created in Oregon's internal memory the CustomMaps folder and has copied your .kmz file inside
    7. Close BC, disconnect your Oregon, turn it on and zoom in very close, for example at Skamneli to see your kmz map


    If you don't see it yet, try again all the above, using the kmz below, it's the same but I've saved it in Google Earth.
    Your kmz is OK, only 63 tiles, the jpg's dimensions are smaller than 1024x1024 (971x1017 or 971x1018) and their size is less than 3MB.

    The original map worked in the SD card of my Oregon 450 without renaming the file, but the map only shows up on the Oregon below 2 mile zoom scale.

    (It did take 2 attempts at copy and paste. On the first try, the map didn't show up on the Select Maps screen, but on the second try all was OK).
