Depends if you want turn arrows or not. You get them with routes, with tracks you do not. I generally use tracks and the compass pointer screen. Which should always point in the direction you should be travelling in.

You sure? I thought I'd used tracks before that did turn by turn on the etrex? It's been so long I've probably forgotten how I set it up. Maybe I converted a track to a route first.
Might be confusing it with my old HCx which could do a TracBack...

"If you do a Where to, tracks you can select saved tracks and in track manager you can pull up saved tracks and also navigate with them. "
hippy
Those of you who use a Etrex -
I understand the differences between a route and a track, so is it just a case of personal preference?
