symbol labeled ‘HOME’ is the waypoint you created
and the line connecting the two is your track log.

walking for another 2-3 minutes. Notice how the dis-
play changes, always keeping the direction you are
moving at the top of the map (see right).
Going to a Waypoint
Once you’ve stored a waypoint in memory, you
