Garman GPS portable navigation units
Mountain rescue teams often claim that getting lost in bad weather is
one of the most common causes of death or injury. Now there is an
affordable solution – a portable Garman GPS system. These little units
will tell you exactly where you are, even if you cannot see any points
to triangulate from. Not only do Garman GPS systems give you an exact
fix on your location, they can also be loaded with a map from your PC
for security anytime, anywhere.
The advantage of the Garman GPS over similar units is that they come
packed with features lesser devices leave out, such as automatic route
calculation, a calendar, and are both extremely lightweight and rugged.
Of course, destined for use in adverse conditions, they are also
waterproof.
One other innovation of the Garman GPS range is the excellent Geocache
Navigation mode. This enables the user to enter a series of points that
are designated as geocaches (interesting points on the map where
‘treasure’ is buried) and navigate between them. The dedicated geocache
mode shows a compass, distance and expected arrival time to the
currently designated geocache, as well as the difficulty and terrain
type.
As if that wasn’t enough, the Garman GPS systems also come with a number
of indoor and outdoor games built in which will turn the entire GPS
world into a vast playfield.
With an accuracy to ten feet in North America, thanks to the advanced
quad-helix antenna, and surprisingly detailed basemap, the Garman GPS is
one of the most complete portable navigation system available, for both
serious hobbyists and professionals alike.
