>> My Garmin GPSMap 60CS records the date and time for each waypoint (in

>> feature while the data are still on the GPS - if you do that it
>> simplifies the tracks down to a subset of the original points and
>> loses all the associated date/time information. Leave the tracks in
>> their "unsaved" state - they will all be called "ACTIVE LOG" when you
>> download them but the date/time data will be intact. The 60CS is
>> discontinued but the 60CSx looks like a similar unit.
