Usually there is a feature on your GPS that allows you to select a waypoint
and from there you can bring up a menu to project from that point. I have a
garmin. Maybe someone here can help you with the magellan. On the garmin, I
just put in distance and bearing on the project WP screen and viola! It
creates a new waypoint.

manual (Sportrak Map) doesn't explicitly mention projecting waypoints, so
I'm a little in the dark.

in a fine-scale map screen on the cursor mode. Then I just move the cursor
until it indicates on the bottom of the screen the data I want. For example,
if the cache info wants me to go BRG 090, 432 ft. I run the cursor out from
my position until those numbers show up on the bottom of the screen, and
then I just walk to the cursor. Is that right? If not, can you help?
