Default navionics sd card/cold lake

Hey all, am making a run up to cold lake, boats in storage. I have my navionics card which has cold lake on it and am trying to do some intel work on a new spot. The normal bath charts offline aren't precise enough(or
as precise as the nav card). I cant seem to open the information on my home pc. Does anyone have any advice on how to open it(bear in mind im quite computer illiterate!) Or even better if someone has a detailed chart of cold lake that they wouldn't mind sharing(emailing). Looking for the northern end of the lake.....
Thanks in advance

I wouldn't consider navionics precise enough either, I find it lacks quite a bit of detail for Cold lake and some of the dropoffs etc it shows are in fairly different spots.

Navionics website under navionics plus shows their map, its no detailed then other charts online though.

Fugawi has a couple of programs that will let you view your Nav card. And see your way points from your fish finder on the maps . Set way point from map to fish finder etc etc. Costs a bit though but well worth it in my opinion.

Pretty sure they used the same free gov't data as navionics. Hence most are about the same.
