GPX files can just be dragged/copied into the NewFiles folder on an Edge or the /Garmin/GPX (I think) folder on etrex units. No basecamp required.

What this is seeming like is that the device I really want in future is the Etrex 30. It means I can use it for hiking, fell running, gravel/mountain biking as well as for mapping long audux rides.
Final question. If I was off on a multi-day tour and I didn't want to be rigid in my route (might see something shiny to go look at), I'm guessing the Etrex wouldn't be so good at handling that if I was only running from a gpx. If I suddenly decided to go a different way it couldn't just re-route me?

I was just watching some videos about how you load maps from basecamp. Would it be annoying to get all the maps on it for London-Edinburgh-London, or would a gpx go straight on?
