Hi Shani4u2.

Thank you for sharing. Iam sometimes faced with the same challenge during off road or 4x4 driving along unmarked paths or roads. I find if i mark the area on the map,sometimes iam able to add a place and sometimes iam not so lucky. It can be fustrating due to poor coverage or not having the option to add a foot path or hiking trail. Many war monuments are in places that dont have any roads. Maybe there should be an option for topo map use which will allow the map to default to add the foot path or narrow unmarked road close to let say an already marked land mark like a church spot height or beacon that is already been added. Hopefully this may be available soon to folk like you and I who spend time outdoors. All the best with your exploring,who knows we may meet over the next hill or mountain pass someday at some distant location. Take care.

Lol.

Will do so.

Better still I will send you the GPS cordinates.

Funny,

not sure if you remember using the older gps’s which had visible latitude and longitudinal cordinates,we could possibly have any option for these on the future topo maps. These will come in hand for medical emergencies.

Take care.

See you on the other side of the hillside.

Over and out

Hi @Muhammad_Usman and welcome to Connect,

You can’t add photos or videos to addresses but only in valid POIs.

By the way, I relabeled your post to How-tos, as it fits better there.
