Dropped the whole thing into a Cal Top Map. Slow as molasses with that much information but it does work!

Molasses is right; it nearly killed my Web browser! GPS Visualizer can handle it a little more smoothly: http://atlas.gpsvisualizer.com/map?url= ... 3Dgpx&wl=1

Suggestion: before loading it into Basecamp, run it through GPS Visualizer's converter and have it add DEM elevation data. Then you'll have (nearly) accurate elevations for all the waypoints.
