A track is a recording of points along the path you travel.
Viewing a profi le of a track gives you valuable information
about the track’s elevation—you can view the profi le over
track distance or time recorded while traveling. When the
profi le changes while you are stationary and tracking by
time, the profi le indicates changes in pressure that you
can use to monitor weather changes. The Profi le Page
lets you view the elevation of the active track as it is
recording or that of a saved track.
For more information about tracks, see
The Tracks Page
section starting on page 66.
