getting garmin explore into BC

Post by patrickg450 »

I have been using my in-Reach mini for a while now, I see my tracks in my the mapshare. Is there a way to get them into BC so I can save my tracks?

I don't know the inreach or mapshare.

But - if you can share them as a gpx file, then the gpx file will drag and drop straight into Basecamp. Or you can import them using the file menu.
Make a List folder and a list in Basecamp first so that you have somewhere to drop them.

Use Basecamp (mainly), MyRouteApp (sometimes), Competent with Tread for XT2, Can use Explore for XT - but it offers nothing that I want !

Do you use the Explore.Garmin.com website to link with your in-reach device ? The manual seems to suggest that is possible.

If so, you can export data as gpx files from there. One of the two buttons in the top right hand corner of the map page.

Otherwise, you'll have to hope that someone can help

I was able to send it to GAIA, looks like another loss for GARMIN.
