Excuse me? It sounds as if you are thinking this is a new request? I found the following threads starting from over a year ago, I think I could have gone back earlier: https://forums.garmin.com/showthread.php?25746-How-about-a-way-to-manage-route-avoidance&highlight=avoidances or https://forums.garmin.com/showthread.php?30395-Can-Custom-Avoidances-be-set-in-Base-Camp&highlight=avoidances. I was hoping user requests that developers agreed they could see a need for were tracked?

We are aware of this request and it's on our famous things-that-we-would-like-to-do-someday list. There are no concrete plans to implement this in 4.3 though.

We are mainly concerned that there is no way to exchange avoidances between devices and BaseCamp, which will lead to different routes created by BaseCamp and the device. It looks like more devices are adding support for taking routes straight from BaseCamp (without recalc), so adding avoidances looks more useful as well.

We will discuss it with our team. :)
