Waypoints

A waypoint is simply an electronic "address," based on the latitude and
longitude of a position on the earth. A waypoint represents a location,
spot, or destination that can be stored in memory, then be recalled and
used later on for navigation purposes. Simply think of it as an elec-
tronic address. You can create a waypoint at the cursor position on the
map, or at your current position while you are navigating.

Create a Waypoint
These techniques use the Quick Save method, the fastest and easiest
way to create a waypoint.
