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.
