Copying Tracks off of the Garmin Montana 600

I need to copy my tracks off of the Garmin Montana 600. I've been riding around some roads and trails this summer that I haven't been on in a long time. I'm using rechargeable AA batteries, because the battery pack it came with died down in Latin America somewhere on the last trip. I think it was in Ecuador?

Now, let's see if I can copy anything meaningful off of the Garmin.

1) Launch EasyGPS.
2) Click on "Receive (from GPS)" icon.
3) Click OK.

So, now I see them in my EasyGPS app, but there's no topo map or anything. So, I save them off as D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\20180612.gpx

Now, to upload them onto a map.

Go to http://www.gpsvisualizer.com/

Select your .gpx file.

Click Map It.

These files will be available for viewing temporarily at the following website (if they take them down, then I can re-upload them again):

I also noticed some tracks out there from 01012018 - 01022018. I saved these off as D:\Inetpub\wwwroot\20180102.gpx, as they appear to be from Peru?

Peru tracks are temporarily available here:

So, I deleted the files from Peru off of the Garmin Montana.
