A method of mowing multiple areas includes training the robotic mower to move across a space separating at least two areas, and initiating a mowing operation. Training the robotic mower to move across the space separating the areas includes moving the robotic mower to a traversal launch point of a first of the areas, storing data indicative of location of the traversal launch point, moving the robotic mower to a traversal landing point of a second of the areas, and storing data indicative of location of the traversal landing point. The mowing operation causes the robotic mower to autonomously and in sequence mow the first of the areas, move to the traversal launch point, move from the traversal launch point across the space to the traversal landing point, and then mow the second of the areas.
