The maps created by [mkgap][1] [mkgmap][1] are vector maps that work on a range of Garmin devices. I've not seen one, but as I understand it the GPSMAP 62s supports actual pictures as an alternative to vector maps (see for example [here][2]). There's a process described [here][3] that could convert a JPG of an area into a map background that you could perhaps try. You can export a JPG directly from the "export" tab on the main map, and can increase the scale to get a larger image. I'd try a small area first - there are limits on the size of image that you can create directly from the export tab (though there are other options available to create images) and probably also limits on the size of JPG that you can load on the GPS. Obviously, while "looking pretty", a simple picture can't be a routable map in the same way that a vector map created by mkgmap can be.
