Thread: Garmin 64s help wanted

Anyone got one of these, need help
I’ve got topo 50 on my phone and it let’s you record where you’re going with a worm like trail so you can easily get back to where you started from which is great if your in the bush, anybody know how to do this on the Garmin?
All help appreciated

Thanks Andy ��

It does it by default,you just need to remember to save the track and then you can use the trackback feature.

Thanks jack
Just spent an hour with swmbo trying to work it out, am going for a wander in the bush tomorrow
If I send you a reply on how it went then I’ve cracked it if I don’t send a reply I might need rescuing ����

Hey I use these all the time for work so I'll give you some tips that should help.
This will be very handy if your way up a valley with river crossings and could be returning in the dark. First go to track manager then clear current track, this starts your track from now, let's say your all done and way up the valley and are ready to return. Go back into track manager save current track name it and then clear it. Now go into track manager again find the named track, select show on map and go to select colour and change it to a different colour then your original track colour. Now getting out will be easy as your track heading back out will be say a red line going back over say a blue line

Thanks for the info mate much appreciated ����
