Course elevation profile not showing after course is created
Former Member
I could see my course's elevation profile while creating it but when I go back in it now the elevation data no longer appears. The Elevation frame appears, but it's empty.

This is a known bug that Garmin apparently can't be bothered to fix (like the course disappearing on Garmin 500's..)
Anyway a quick fix to show the elevation profile is to open up the course in Garmin Connect and click EDIT, and then just CANCEL. The elevation profile comes back.. However it still won't save the elevation data so you can't have it on your device.
Full workaround is to use a third party site to create the route, there are many and most work better than Garmin's! A personal favourite is RideWithGps.
Same problem here, I can see my course's elevation profile while creating it but when I finish and save the course, the elevation data no longer appears. Also, I have a similar problem when I save as course one of my activities.
Pe. This is a recent activity with Elevation Gain: 2.659 m
Save as course… Dadaaa! Elevation graphic is blank
Now, let's make a new course…
I click "Save" and Dadaaa! Elevation graphic is blank
