I want to have a back-up of all my waypoints on the computer in case my GPS ever crashes. On my old GPS, I hand copied all my waypoints to the computer via Word and it was a pain. Good thing I did, because my old GPS crashed and I had to manually reenter all the positions-yuck! I've read in the manual that data can be transferred via an SD card and another type, but I am slightly confused. I don't want to remove the data, just copy it to the computer as I said. Once copied, is it easily returned to the GPS if it ever crashes and the waypoints are lost? Do I need special software like Map Create from Lowrance to do this (I hope not)? If anybody has an easily understood process, I would be humbly grateful.
Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe. I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho. Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there. About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway. Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work. You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water. When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
