Hi icon_smile.gif

I have a Garmin Venture, recently purchased last weekend, and I'd like to have it track my path .. though I'm not sure

1. How to do that

2. How to superimpose that track over a satellite picture..

 

Help!

Thanks

1. When you're ready to start recording a track, goto Main Menu=> Tracks. Clear the track log to start fresh, and make sure it's on. It will track automatically. When you're done, go back to Main Menu=> Tracks, then save the track. Give it a useful name. You can then upload the tracks to a program that accepts them.

 

2. ExpertGPS is one program that does this. A freeware program is USAPhotoMaps, available at jdmcox.com . It doesn't have the smoothest interface, but it works.
