‘Route’ and Route Page
The eTrex allows you to navigate using one of three
methods:
• GOTO
• Route
• TracBack
• Route
• TracBack
The GOTO method of navigation was briefl y
discussed on page 16. This section discusses the route
method. The third method, TracBack, is discussed on
page 28. In the eTrex, a route is at least two waypoints
hat describe the path you are going to travel. The route
feature is very convenient because it allows the eTrex
to guide you from the fi rst waypoint in the route, to
each successive waypoint until you reach your fi nal
destination. The route feature and the GOTO feature are
comparable in that they both guide you to destination
waypoints.

However, the route feature is more powerful because
it is more automatic. When you reach one waypoint, the
eTrex automatically guides you to the next waypoint on
the route without needing to touch any button. When you
use the ‘GOTO’ feature you have to stop and select the
next waypoint before you start moving. When you plan
a trip, you can select waypoints from a waypoint list and
put them into the eTrex’s memory. At least 2 waypoints
(up to a maximum of 50) are linked together to form a
route.

When you start your trip, you activate the route
feature and the receiver points the way you should travel
to get from the fi rst waypoint to the second. You can then
use the pointer page to give you steering guidance.
