Apple Watch not tracking Location on fitness

I am trying to get my Apple fitness app to track elevation change on my hikes and walks. I have read that I need to have location services on for that app. In my iPhone settings I have changed location to “while using app” for the watch app, but when I look at location settings on the watch, it still says “never” and the rest are greyed out. Any ideas how to get phone and watch to sync up so the settings match?

Apple Watch Series 4, watchOS 6
