Tater,
Perhaps you know this already but the Garmin has a connect software for Google Earth. If you down load Google Earth and go to Tools then GPS you will find the connection screen so you can download your Garmin data with it and show your way points, etc. I used my Garmin to lay out my fences at the farm, plus my new ponds, etc.

Click on the ruler and you will have cross hairs to read off Long & Lat numbers at certain points that you can follow with the GPS. In effect you can make a route in reverse using Google Earth.
