Montana 750i: How Do I Stop Tracks From Showing on the Map Display?

Since resetting my Montana 750i to fix a glitch, my map display is being swamped by a veritable spaghetti works of tracks, which I don't remember it doing previously. I want to continue to record tracks, but not have them (except maybe the current one) displaying on the map. As I said above, the map currently looks like a plate of blue spaghetti, hiding all the features beneath. I've tried to locate a solution in the product manual and by a Google search, but the only solution I've found is to either turn off tracking completely or to delete the tracks one by one, erasing them from both the map display and memory. This is not the solution I am seeking.

If anyone can suggest a solution that works, I'd appreciate hearing it. If there is no way to do this, I'd like to suggest it as a desirable new feature.

Thank you,

Terry

  • I have mine daily activity set to auto save.  This means I Only have the unsaved track showing on the map.

  • Thank you, BigLew. I found the same answer on page 26 of the manual after poking around the dark recesses of advanced settings on the unit. I haven't tried it out on a hike yet, but I turned the unit on and there was no spaghetti."Show on map" is set to "off" in each of my recorded activities, but it was also "off" when I had the spaghetti. On of the problems with a highly complex piece of equipment is how many individual settings there are, and how many places you have to look for them.
