"GO" pin in wrong spot

Postby jonnosan on Mon Apr 09, 2012 8:59 pm

When I view the map on trip http://www.everytrail.com/view_trip.php?trip_id=1523945 , the "GO" pin app is wrong (it is actually showing the spot where I stayed the night before doing the hike).

But when I go to edit the trail (i.e. http://www.everytrail.com/edit_map.php?trip_id=1523945) , the map doesn't show any waypoint that corresponds to the location where the GO pin is.

The Trip Length (as shown on the main trip page, i.e. http://www.everytrail.com/view_trip.php?trip_id=1523945 ) is 46KM which would be correct if trip the spurious "GO" waypoint is excluded, but if I go to statistics mode, it shows the trip distance as being 90KM (i.e. it looks to be including the drive from the "GO" waypoint to the 'real' start of the treck).

How can I fix this up, so the "GO" pin shows the point I actually started walking?

Try going to edit map--you may have a track with 1-2 points listed first (by timestamp), that is causing the problem.
