Default Creating a map of my ranch

Folks,

I am currently mapping out my farm/ranch with a GPS to make a record of where all my tree stands are, main deer traffic corridors, past rubs and scrapes, bedding areas, etc. This is OK to view on the GPS and I can open all of these waypoints into Google Earth.

However, what I really want is to be able to create a printed map with satellite/aerial background and showing all the boundaries along with all my locations showing. I mainly want this for my dad as he isn't much on using any GPS.

Does anybody know how to do this or know of a company that specializes in creating these types of things? My tree stands are permanent and the traffic corridors and food and water areas stay the same so having a printed map of all this stuff seems like a good idea to me.

Just curious. If you are interested in the same thing, please post a note also so I can be sure to update the group if I find this out on my own.
