Milepost

I would like to put down some milepost to mark distance from the starting point of my track. My question is how do I measure distance as the track goes (kinda like the to crow flies)?

Using Google Earth, create a folder called "Mileposts". Mark out the distance using the path option in the measuring (ruler) tool, and setting markers at 1-mile increments. Save the folder in KML format, and convert to CSV using RW_Tools. Create a new marker Blueprint, export, and you're done! :D
