my son purchased a gps for hiking in new zealand and has this issue....
when he turns on the gps at a trailhead he gets this pink line with a pin mark, i think marking the last location where he turned on the gps...
see atth'd pic....
how does he get rid of that line/pin so that it does not become part of his new hike...
i have given him the following instructions (below) for when he starts a new hike...maybe i am missing something or maybe there is a setting that he needs to adjust....
thanks for your help....
Should calibrate compass every so often..
no need to hit the GO button when following a track, just overlay the new track on top of the existing track...
When turning GPS on, give it a minute or two in order to connect to the satellites, "GPS Soak"
Make sure to clear track before starting a new hike as it will probably start from the location that the GPS was last turned on.
