Replacement program for amateur cartographer?

1 Upvotes

Avid hiker here - I rely heavily on GE for generating trail maps by importing a topographic map image, using the image overlay feature to fit it to the landscape, then exporting it as a KMZ that I upload to my Garmin handheld GPS. Given the news of GE's ultimate demise, I'm researching a replacement.

The web version of GE apparently doesn't support image overlays. Any idea what software I could use instead (hopefully without too steep a learning curve)? Most of the suggestions I've seen in this forum (QGIS, GeoLibre, ArcGIS) appear to be overly complicated for an amateur cartographer like myself - and I'm not sure which ones do or don't support image overlays & exporting to KMZ (my primary needs). Thanks for any advice you can provide!

Me ha impresionado ver cómo el propio Google Earth oficial, admita que en esa ubicación del lago pappouse, exista el S4 que ha mencionado siempre Bob Lazar. Curioso!!!
