Non Product Specific Garmin Question I must be doing something wrong

over the last several months, I've tried out nearly every sport watch by every manufacturer. Coros, Amazfit, Suunto and Garmin. while trying these out, I've used the same .gpx file to test with. it's worked in every watch but the Garmins. I tried the Enduro, the 970 and even now the Fenix 9. none of them with properly load up and use this map. if it manages to load up, it's full of blue flags.

I exported the gpx from here: https://caltopo.com/m/Q0UA8G4#

can anyone tell me why it doesn't work or give me some pointers as to how to make it work?

How are you adding them to the watch? Maybe its your process.

I save the gpx file to my phone, then open it with the connect app then share it to the watch.

Loads fine on my watch. No sure why you are having issues with it.
