Hi Joe, have you tried using the slide property "Resume saved state"? I believe this should return the slide to it's previous state.

Sam,
Not actually. The slider is controlled by the contents of the variable it is attached to. Whether the slide is set to Initial state, or Saved state doesn’t change the value stored in the variable. Variables are specifically designed to maintain their value no matter what else happens, until a trigger changes it. If it is attached to a slider, changing the slider will also change it, and changing the variable will move the slider.
I think Joe wants to be able to leave the course, and later return to it and have the location choice be maintained. So the question is not really the slider, it’s the variable.
Phil Mayor has an idea about passing values to a variable in this discussion: https://community.articulate.com/discussions/articulate-storyline/setting-a-variable-in-the-story-html-file#reply-698553 The problem is in getting the variable when the course closes. I'm not sure how to go about that, but there might be something in the LMS that would help.
