As a member of a local backpacking club, you volunteer to
conduct trail clean-up before the opening of each camping
season. Your map indicates various landmarks along the trail,
but the trail itself has become overgrown. You move along the
trail, clearing the underbrush to reveal the trail and at each
landmark you set a waypoint on your Watch. When you reach
the end of your designated clean-up route, you activate the
Track Back feature to return to each landmark on your route
and ensure you have properly cleared the trail.

The Watch will display the current heading and bearing and
the estimated distance from your current location to the
selected waypoint.

3. Begin moving. The Watch will display your current location

until your location aligns with your chosen waypoint.

The Watch calculates the distance between your current
position and the chosen waypoint as a straight line. Depending
on your heading and bearing, the distance may appear to
increase as you move towards your desired waypoint.

4. Press and hold STOP/RESET to deactivate the Track Back

feature once you reach your destination.

5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 to navigate to another stored

waypoint. This allows you to retrace your path through a
series of stored waypoints.
