Back country navigator or Gaia for my tablet

Well for Christmas I got a Samsung Galaxy S2 8" tablet. It has GPS. But now I need some kind of map download so I can go out into the wild blue yonder.

I mainly hunt the southwestern desert, but may hunt the northwest a little someday.

I don't know much about this stuff, so please help me out. I know, "when" I have wifi connection I can use google maps, but most times I don't have wifi available.

Download maps where you have service and switch to airplane mode when out of service area.
Works great on my I Phone and IPad.
 
Gaia freezes up occasionally on my Samsung tablet. BCN doesn't. So that's what I use. It's not great but I haven't found a nav app that is and I have tried most of the usual suspects. It's the best of a bad lot, for me, so far. Nav on a tablet kind of sucks, really.
