Hi,
Downloaded Bear creek survey waypoints for the colorado trail.  They show up on Topo North America, but they won't load on my GPS unit.  I have the GPX file on the unit already, but the waypoints will not sync when I connect the unit to the computer.

Stressing about the CTR on monday!

Thanks!
Zach

I used to have a pn60 and got rid of it cuz I found it so hard to use (though to be fair I'm new to all this gps stuff).  Not what you want to hear, I know.  Anyway when you loaded the main gpx file for the race that file included a bunch of waypoints, right?  If those are on there personally I wouldn't worry about it if you don't figure out how to get the bear creek waypoints on.  I didn't load those last year and certainly didn't miss them.  Shoot, even if you have only the track with no waypoints at all I think you are good to go.  That being said I thinks it's worthwile to carry the data book.  That will give you info on water sources and is a nice backup in case the gps fails.  Anyway if you don't get the bear creek waypoints on don't let it stress you.
