+g0t0pless Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 I have a Magellan GC and a Magellan Explorist 500. Both have the ability to mark my trail as I walk. Once I get home, I open the .gpx file in Google Earth and I am able to see the trail I walked. Here's where I start to get confused. I am unable to figure out how to edit the actual tracks. For example, lets say I make a wrong turn, how do I edit that out of the file? I see all of the waypoints in the list, but deleting it just removes the pinpoint, not the actual "line" that shows I walked there. Its as if I need to edit the trail, not just the pinpoint. Any ideas? By the way, I am planning to do this for a local park in our area that has very outdated and hard to read maps. Quote Link to comment
+g0t0pless Posted October 23, 2011 Author Share Posted October 23, 2011 I can also explain it this way. Lets say I have a path marked A,B,C,D and E. All of the points, when connected together make an arc. Now lets say I want to edit out points C and D so now when the points are connected, its as if I never walked there at all, creating a ^ shape.

+g0t0pless Posted October 23, 2011 Author Share Posted October 23, 2011 Or perhaps, explaining it this way wpuld be even easier to understand. Lets say I walk multiple trails in a day, and have them all marked as one trail. Is there a way to split them apart into several trails so I can mark them individually? That way I can color code the trails. Bluebird trail is blue, Cardinal trail is red, Woodpecker trail is yellow, etc... Quote Link to comment
