First, Set Up Your MapShare Page

Go to your Explore.Garmin SOCIAL Page and make sure you have you settings correct, especially make sure you allow people to contact you.

Once that is completed, make sure you send them the email link.

Next, Create a Course & Start Tracking

You can create a route on the Explore.Garmin Map page, but I prefer to create a course using the Explore App. Here is a recent example of me doing this.

First, CREATE the course on the Explore App.Create a Course Using the Explore App
