Following a path drawn in google earth

Post by noikmeister » 18 September 09 9:03 pm

Have I got this right (Garmin eTrex H)?
1: Draw your intended path in Google Earth
2: Save as a KML file as a Track (or is it route)
3: Use some utility to load the KML file (I used GPS Utility)
4: Go to TRACKS
5: Select saved Track
6: Select Track back to end
7: Follow the line

I'll test this out on the oval tomorrow. Just wanted to know if I was on the right track.

Cheers,
Jeremy.
