Navigating a Saved Track

The TracBack function allows you to retrace your path using the
track log automatically stored in the receiver's memory, which
eliminates the need to store waypoints along the way. TracBack
routes are created by reducing your track log into a route with up to
50 turns and activating an inverted route along those points. When
activated, a TracBack route leads you back to the oldest stored track
log point, so it is a good idea to clear the existing track log before
you start your current trip. You must save an active track log before
you can navigate it as a TracBack.
