These have been generated from the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.skylinescotland.com\/ring-of-steall-skyrace\/information\/#displayTheRoute\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ring of Steall\u2122 official download<\/a> and the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.skylinescotland.com\/mamores-vertical-kilometre\/information\/#displayTheRoute\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mamores VK\u2122 official download<\/a>. They&#8217;ve been stripped back to include only coordinates, <em>i.e.<\/em> no elevation or timings. Any metadata associated with their original creation in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gpsies.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GPSies<\/a> has also been removed. They&#8217;re essentially as simple as possible, so should be suitable for import into as many different watches etc. as possible.<\/p>\n<p>The coordinates have been saved into GPX &#8216;routes&#8217; rather than &#8216;tracks&#8217; (<a href=\"http:\/\/cycleseven.org\/gps-waypoints-routes-and-tracks-the-difference\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">more info here<\/a>). If your device has a maximum limit on number of points it can handle then you may want to note that the Ring of Steall file contains approx. 2750 <strong>route<\/strong>points, and the Mamores VK file contains around 915 <strong>route<\/strong>points. None of the routepoints are named, so no CP names or any other features. There are no <strong>track<\/strong>points or <strong>way<\/strong>points in either of the files.<\/p>\n<p>The files have succesfully imported into my Suunto Movescount account, but it did &#8220;simplify&#8221; (Suunto&#8217;s word) the Ring of Steall route down to 1,000 routepoints instead.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>These are completely unofficial files, not endorsed by or associated with the organisers in any way, and you use them entirely at your own risk.
