Nice and clear, a "no fuss" approach to getting started - thank you.

I recently purchased a Garmin Etrex and didn't have a clue how to use Basecamp. But thanks to your easy tutorial, I'm now a very confident user!

Thank you, I spent a bit of time on the Garmin site with not much success, after watching your video I now have three track save for my Great Smoky Mountian National Park trip.

I’ve tried for a while to get my head around BaseCamp. Followed your example and managed to do a great walk. Thank you for restoring my confidence.

Thanks for this, I thought I must be stupid because I couldn’t make head nor tail of the Garmin manual. Excellent clear explanation.

Thank goodness for you, dead easy and clear. My new eTrex and PC were about to go through the window after 2 nights getting nowhere viewing the appalling "Garmin" produced video tutorials. How such a big established company feels its OK to provide such rubbish I'm not sure. Many thanks for taking the time to do this.

What a breath of fresh air. I get my garmin etrex out of the cupboard every couple of years and tear my hair out as I try to navigate (no pun intended) my way around, to me, the totally non-intuitive BaseCamp app before throwing it back in the cupboard or just taking it along for the walk in case I need to check my position. How I wish I'd seen this when it was published. Thank you so much for a clear, step by step, non USA orientated tutorial. I look forward to learning more ------- at last!!!!

I am so glad that the videos have helped. They were intended to just get people going on Basecamp so that they were confident to start using it. I'm sure that there are lots of expert level tutorials out there, but sometimes we just need to get over the starting line!

HELLO, as an ex soldier i have always used the belt and braces method for map reading eg map and compass, now I'm out of the forces I'm thinking of buying a garmin sat nav for walkers. What really impressed me was your clear and concise way of explaining the subject and the precision of the way you were using the app.

Thank you for your feedback. I always take a map and compass with me anyway, but I find that the Garmin helps me plan my walks beforehand, and gives me that extra bit of confidence that I am following the correct path :-)

I bought a GPSMAP 64s and it hasn't yet arrived but I'm wondering if I've got the right thing. Can these handheld GPSs take me to an address without knowing where it is on a map, like if I only knew the address details of a postcode, street name and house number etc? Something like car drivers use but that works for both walkers and drivers. I hope I've got the right device.

Hi, I don't know that model, but my Garmin allows me to enter addresses to go to. I can't say that I have ever done it, I prefer to map out a walk and follow the route/track before hand. But it does look like it is possible to do what you want.

How do you get the new track onto your Garmin?
@garminbasecampforabsoluteb88582 жыл бұрын
Plug your Garmin into your computer. Basecamp will recognise the Garmin in a short while. You can then drag your new track onto the Garmin in the left pane. Disconnect the Garmin and check that the track is on there and recognisable.
