Navigating with a Magellan eXplorist GC

[+anderland1n2]

I just purchased my eXplorist GC and have a question for other owners. When I tell it to navigate to a cache, it shows a direct line from my current location to the cache. Is there not an option for it to route you using streets to the destination?

 

Thanks in advance.

Sorry to say that no there is not. Now people have been able to upgrade the GC so you can add topo maps like a 310. I doubt if anyone can give it the routeable ability of a 510, but who knows.

What I do is use my TomTom to direct me to the cache location, type in the coridants of the cache into TomTom's travel to section, and then I use the GC to walk to the cache. If anything, you can zoom in on the GC's map so it will show more detailed streets and just use that to get an idea where to turn.
