Texas Raptor Run April 13-15

GPS? Using Nav dropped "breadcrumbs" around while driving yesterday. Works very well, and looks like after one lap the course will be very easy to follow. Anyone else doing this?

He said he was going to try and get them when he was up there a few weeks
Back but he also said te track might be a little different so we shall see. If not then that's what Friday will be for haha do a little prerunnin and get the course mapped out

I tried this once, and for some reason I think it wouldn't breadcrumb the whole track before it ran out of memory

I will make a course map before Friday. We are looking at changing a few sections up, but I will have a file before everyone gets there. Tip jar for gas taped to my laptop...

Damn. Seemed so easy. Supposed to help you find your way back if wander off and get lost in back-country. 45 miles does not sound that far. Need a bigger jar of breadcrumbs! I guess if it runs out of memory Nav retains the latest breadcrumbs and thus you lose the earliest info routed? I guess it thinks you want to retrace your route going back the way you came? Not so good on a one-way track. Will add up some mileage and see where it runs out
