Guidance by GARMIN
The eTrex guides you to a destination using a GOTO
(GOTO means GOing TO a destination in a direct line).
Now let' s use the GOTO feature and the Pointer Page to
travel back to our starting location.
To Start a GOTO:
1. Press the PAGE Button and switch to the 'MENU'
Page.
2. Press the UP or DOWN Button and highlight
'WAYPOINTS'.
3. Press ENTER. The 'WAYPOINTS' Page appears.
4. Press the UP or DOWN Button and select the tab
containing 'HOME' and press ENTER.
5. Press the UP or DOWN Button to select 'HOME'
and press ENTER. The 'REVIEW WAYPOINT' Page
appears.
6. Press the UP or DOWN Button to highlight the
'GOTO', and press ENTER.
The Compass Page appears and you're now ready for
eTrex to guide you back to your starting location!

Heading in the Right Direction

The eTrex will guide you back to where you started
using the Pointer Page. The pointer tells you the direction
to the destination. Walk in the direction the arrow is
pointing until the arrow points to the top of the compass
ring. If the arrow points to the right, you need to go to
the right. If the arrow points to the left, go left. When
the arrow is pointing straight up, you are on the correct
track!
