Introduced with Montana firmware v4.40, and BaseCamp v4.01, Garmin included new functionality designed to help Garmin GPSr users share their experiences, take them to new places and ultimately enrich their outdoor adventures.
What is an Adventure?
- An Adventure is a user created collection of tracks, routes (not yet supported), waypoints, geocaches, photos and/or videos shared via Garmin BaseCamp enabling others to view and recreate their experiences.
- Read the Garmin Adventures press release.
- Each Adventure is given a name and assigned the following information to help users quickly find an Adventure that appeals to them:
- Type | Indicates the primary activity the Adventure caters toward
- Difficulty | Beginner (Green) through Expert (Red)
- Rating | Public popularity (0-5 stars)
- Distance | Total distance of the Adventure from start to finish
- Duration | Estimated time required to complete the Adventure
Create an Adventure Creating and publishing an Adventure to share with other Garmin users is accomplished entirely within the Garmin BaseCamp application using data imported from your Montana GPSr and other devices. Remember to save all Track Log(s), Waypoints and Photos (non geotagged photos will not be displayed in Adventures application) you wish to include while creating your next Adventure!
