Hi the wonderfull Back Track Navigation following the recorded track is no longer possible ! So the navigation is no longer possible at all in difficoult situation ! Pls re-load that options that was the only option let the Ambit 3 Peak a genuine GPS navigator, capable to really help to come back in mountain trip with low visibility or very complicate return track… Arrow navigation only is too much inaccurate ! thanks lot

Hello,
I’d like to kind ask you if someone of you use back track options on S9B which I already have. I traied that option yeasterday in moutain but to be honest I am not sure it that works good…
I mean by that the blue triangle didn’t show me where should I go now, it maybe showed me (I suppose because I am not sure) start place. I thought that blue triangle will show me exactly my track.
Now I am thinking that much more useful is trace which I can see during route ecause then I can compare my currect trace and previous one.ps who can tell me what is that two small blue triangles on the top which I saw all the time for?

breadcrumb is your way backthe function you have activated allows you to return to the departure via the shortest route, as the crow flies. Here at the top, on the screen, you will have where to position the compass arrow that indicates the start.
By placing the arrow in the middle, at the top, at 12 o’clock to understand each other, you will return to the start by the shortest way, as I wrote above.
The meters indicated, these too are obviously the meters that are as the crow flies.

@Saketo-Nemo ok then. Thank you so much!

Just to add some references from the manual for clarity: The “Find back” feature basically uses your starting point as POI and navigates to it the same way as used for POIs generally. So this might give you some clue:https://www.suunto.com/Support/Product-support/suunto_9/suunto_9/features/points-of-interest/
https://www.suunto.com/Support/Product-support/suunto_9/suunto_9/features/find-back/Those marks at the top are indeed meant to be used together with the arrow as a sight on a compass or a gunsight on a gun = when the arrow is in the middle of those marks, the watch points exactly towards the starting point (or POI).
