Garmin Gps Etrex Summit
How do you get a Garmin eTrex Vista GPS to tell you your trip’s aggregate vertical climbing?
I think it’s showing me the total increase in altitude, but what I want is all the little increases in altitude totaled up. So for example if I started at 6,000 feet, went up to 6,800, then back to down to 6,000, and back up to 7,000. I think it’s showing me 1,000 (summit-base), not the total climbing (which would be 1,800)?
There are many different types of data that your altimeter can show, including three different types of ascent: total, maximum, and average. It sounds like your altimeter is set to ‘Ascent – Maximum’ and should be set to ‘Ascent – Total.’
If it doesn’t show ‘Ascent – Total,’ here’s how what to do: On the ‘altimeter page,’ select the menu button once, then select ‘Change Data Fields’ – ‘Ascent – Total.’
If it already shows ‘Ascent – Total,’ then you’re ready to go!
Also, remember that you’ll need to reset your altimeter data (also in the page menu) before leaving the trailhead as well.
