Thanks for the screenshot.

Yes, I think the issue is the OpenStreetMap Garmin map was not created
as a transparent set or the stacking order is wrong.

This guy make specialist rendered OpenStreetMap Garmin map for hikers:
http://openmtbmap.org/ including contours. (Contours from SRTM)
I am no Garmin / mkgmap expert, but I could have a go if OpenMtbmap
isn't helpful. Using mkgmap the TMNP boundry could be set not to
display else the transparency options could be flipped.
