I will use a wifi only ipad mini as GPS.
What would be a cheap yet reliable way to track my routes offline, without using my phone or hotspot data plan??

Using up your data plan notwithstanding, suppose you want to get navigation help using iStuff when you can't make connection to a cell tower? Look at a Verizon coverage map of the U.S. in the scenic areas of the Western states to see what I mean about cell coverage blank spots.
Garmin is the way to go ... they only need satellite signals ... which are in a lot more places than cell towers. After you get a Garmin, download into it thousands of the free Points of Interest locations from users all over the U.S. to just about find anything anywhere. I have over 850,000 Points of Interest in my RV's Garmin navigator, including such things as every lake - wet or dry - in the U.S..
