Creating and Using a Route - Overview
Route navigation allows you to create a sequence
of intermediate waypoints which lead you to your fi nal
destination. The eTrex Legend will store 20 routes, each
with up to 50 waypoints. A route can be created and
modifi ed from the Route Page, and waypoints can be
added to a route from the Find Menu. More complex
routes can be created using a PC and MapSource mapping
programs and then transferred to the unit memory. You
can add a waypoint or map item to an existing route at
any time.
