Your solution certainly works, but I feel there is a better one. If, when you go to choose your Vermilionville via point, you choose the button to "Show Map" instead of choosing the "Go" button, you can tap the screen at a point you know you will reach (like the entrance to the park), and then hit the "Go" button. The via point is now the arrow where you touched the screen and NOT the original unreachable Vermilionville coordinates chosen from POIs or Favorites.
