Folks, I have already started a thread because my Fenix shows completely wrong "total ascent" and "descent". In the meantime I am in contact with the support and the beta-team. Unfortunately Garmin has not considered this behavior as a bug yet. And therefore they aren´t working on this.
That´s why I want you to share your dates concerning "total ascent" and "descent" (ideally compared with other watches that measured in parallel and/or the dates which you get on Basecamp when you upload the gpx-file that the Fenix has recorded. And please add if you have Fenix 5 oder 5x because it seems that the 5x doesn´t have this bug.
I would appreciate if you join this thread because I can figure out if only my watch has a problem or if there is bug in the firmeware ...and if so this thread can/should accelerate Garmins activities.
