Dose anybody here know a program out of the box that will upload hi
resolution Topo maps to a Garmin 60cs.

If you can't find what you want off the shelf, you might want to look

which is a tutorial on making your own Garmin MapSource-compatible
24K topo maps from free USGS data. It might be serious overkill, but
