Explaining Waypoints

Waypoints are locations or landmarks that are recorded and stored in your Garmin outdoor device.

These are locations that you may later want to return to, such as your vehicle or a waterfall. They may also be significant points or features you found during your activity, such as a camp, a fork in a trail, or a favorite fishing spot.

Waypoints can be manually entered by taking coordinates from a map or other reference. Also, waypoints may be entered by marking a point at the current position of the device, or on the map of the device.

For information on how your device marks or saves waypoints, review your owner's manual.
