Google Maps Route to GPX File

 This screencast video is all about how to create a GPX file from a Google Maps route you have created. Trying to use Google maps on a trip where you may go in and out of cell coverage is risky, because if and when you flip away from the Google maps app to another app on your mobile device, and come back, you risk losing the route out there, which, of course would be a bad thing in the middle of nowhere. This process shows you how to lock down your route on a GPS receiver or GPS app so it doesn't matter if you go in and out of cell coverage. This method is admittedly not the simplest method available, but it is one that opens the door for additional features you may get into once you step into the wonderful rabbit hole of GPS and GPX file manipulation. Enjoy!
