Does anyone have any experience regarding Garmin's Mapsource?

Basically, I've put in the waypoint for the campsite, created the route, sent it to the device but for some reason it isn't showing up on the Garmin device. 

Especially not like this -


All I can see is the waypoint and that's it. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

EDIT: It's a Garmin eTrex 10
EDIT EDIT: Whoops, suppose that's shown by the picture lol. ::)
EDIT EDIT EDIT: I'm using TalkyToaster's map sets.

every once in a while i figure out how to use it, then forget and have to do a bit of trial and error, i really should write it down next time i figure it out.
think outside, no box required

Ta!  Rung Garmin themselves earlier, they pretty much said; 'Don't use routes, use the track function.' 

Still it's nothing like how they seem to put it across on their website!

Will look through this now. :)
