Creating gpx file and downloading it to desktop

Postby gary_w on Mon Aug 29, 2011 2:05 pm

New to everytrail but not to gps. However, have not been able to find instructions on Everytrail on how to download a gpx file to my Mac desktop so I can then upload it to my gps device (Grmin Oregon). I am certain the HOW TO must be here somewhere. Can someone direct me or give me instructions?

Thanks

Under the map on the trip detail page, there is a "download gpx" link on the right side.

There is no download gpx within the mobile apps, only on the website. There should be an option to rotate the map using the compass within the mobile apps.
