Take your eTrex Vista anywhere One of the smallest pocket handhelds with all the features outdoor enthusiasts love, the HCx version of the eTrex Vista now has a high-sensitivity GPS receiver. This means you won t lose your signal when you re geocaching deep in the woods, hiking into canyons or amongst tall buildings in unfamiliar cities. Featuring a built-in basemap, it accepts preprogrammed microSD cards (sold separately) for adding optional maps on the go, including MapSource Topo and Inland Lakes, BlueChart marine cartography, or City Navigator street maps. It also has a barometric altimeter and an electronic compass for continuous bearing information. The elevation computer provides current elevation, ascent/descent rate plus the total, max. and average ascent/descent rates, and min/max elevation. With automatic routing capability, you get auto route generation, off-route recalculation, turn-by-turn directions with alert tones and icon-driven menus for finding points of interest (when combined with Garmin s optional MapSource CDs) to navigate you safely to your destination. Add to that a bright, full-color TFT display and long, 17-hour battery life, and you ve got a great companion for your next outdoor or boating adventure.
