Bit of an old post but may help newer readers

You can go into the settings of the tracks and turn of the track record after each hike, save the track and then turn it back on at the start of a new one.

i have searched and tried to get a short cut onto the page menu to do this but you can't, ould be so much better instead of having to go pressing a few times

i use a gps map 62s but i think many other gamins work the same

Just thought this may help a lot of people know what all the settings are for on the unit that one has.

just select the model from the top of the page

please put up a smile or comment if you find it any good

Hi, Im not that good with base camp but i think it has a very bear bones map, its only when you plug in your device that it has a full map, i.e.: the map that yo have on your device is now visible in basecamp, this is how mine works.

Maybe you have to go into the setting in base camp and choose which map you want to view, if you have more then one on the device.

Many thanks for the reply.
i didn't think that it could be done but thought that i would ask as so many people find workarounds ,:) 

 I have a garmin gps map 62s and am very pleased with it apart from a couple of things.

Is there any way i can change the position icon from the large triangle to something a bit smaller?  all help would be appreciated.

many thanks in advance
