Easy Navigation in the Woods or on the Water with the Garmin eTrex GPS Handheld
I am an expert navigator with a map & compass but neither is as effective or as easy as the eTrex.
I highly recommend the Gramin eTrex as a basic navigational aide. It's also a great starter for learning about GPS systems. It does everything it's meant to and does it very well.
Garmin's claims of one handed usage are for real, it is easy to navigate the interface with the solid buttons on the unit."
The Garmin eTrex GPS has one of the longest battery lives on the market, another major influence to purchase, and because it is only powered by two AA batteries, the maintenance costs are minimal. I highly recommend the Garmin eTrex GPS to users of any skill looking for a quick, reliable and inexpensive GPS fix.
Nothing fancy about this unit -- other than the remarkably easy to use interface. Its not
possible to do better in this price range.
The Garmin eTrex GPS works well (superbly well) for the sea kayaker. It's waterproof. You can pre-plot a destination if you know the coordinates. You simply utilize the "go to" feature and the eTrex points the way.
Like most modern hand-held units, the eTrex generates its own map of your movements as a visual tracklog or 'breadcrumb trail'. For retracing your steps ('Trackback' mode) you will see all the detail you will ever need.
