    Hello

    Prepared waypoints and have file in gpx format. Copied it under Garmin/gpx directory.
    Map is under Garmin directory.

    When I open the unit, I want to go to my route but unit shows a former route only, not my loaded one.

    I have formatted micro SD and copied the map and gpx file again.

    Is there amemory on my Montana unit which keeps all waypoints and tracks and routes? How can I reach and erase it?

    Thanks

    How did you generate the gpx file?, indiviual waypoints will not be displayed as a Route or Track unless they are saved in a gpx file as a 'Route' or 'Track', e.g. in Garmin Basecamp create 'New Route' or create 'New Track'

    I prepared them on Google Maps, converted to gpx files. Imported to BaseCamp.
    Main problem is they are not seen as a route on my Montana but a former route which is not on Micro SD is seen as a route on Montana and I can't delete it...

    I would guess the gpx file is invalid for the Garmin unit, you can generate your Route in Garmin Basecamp and send it directly to the Montana
