Garmin eTrex 10 Outdoor Handheld GPS Unit, Black/Yellow

Product Information

What is a GPS waypoint? It’s a marker you create as part of a route, or as a reference point on your journey.

In some ways it feels as if Garmin have attempted to make the ETrex everything for everyone. Here’s an example: one of the features built-in to this GPS device is aimed squarely at nautical activities. Which is great if you own a boat and he regularly sale around the world. But not so great for a product aimed squarely at the hiker’s marketplace. After all, how many hikers do you know who haul yacht behind them as they roam through dark Woodlands and over huge hills? I like to kid myself that the engineers and designers of this device invoked some kind of dark, technical magic to create an incredibly tough device the shrugs off everything nature and careless hikers throw at it. The reality is much simpler: Garmin have kept it small, rugged and simple. On the 33 mile walk we look at pre walk planning, transferring a .gpx file onto a Garmin Fenix watch and then we set off along St Cuthbert's Way.This time I am heading out with the Garmin Oregon 700 Outdoor GPS unit and head up into the Cheviot Hills. In this walk and talk I am joined by two special guests, Amon and Antony from the Bullitt Group, who created the Motorola Defy satellite link.

A look at the Bullitt App, which is on the phone to work in conjunction with the Motorola Defy – Satellite Link - 07:20 You’ll now see a numeric keypad and navigation arrows. Use the keypad to enter the coordinates from your map. If you don’t need to change a particular digit, use the left and right arrows to navigate past it. The sun was shining for once and the video hopefully brings a bit of insight into how to use a Garmin Montana 700/ 700i and 750i GPS unit on the hill. As an entry level model, it’s easy to outstrip the Garmin eTrex 10 GPS – its eTrex siblings feature colour screens, more storage and helpful additions like an altimeter, in the case of the Garmin eTrex 32x. Equally, for more professional-level users the Garmin GPSMAP 65 range offers serious firepower for only a little more bulk. However, bear in mind that you’re more than doubling and then trebling the price of the little Garmin eTrex 10 to step up to those two examples respectively, so very much a case of horses for courses. Garmin eTrex 10 GPS review: verdictWe stretch our legs along the Pennine Way as it passes through Yorkshire and talk in depth about the Motorola Defy satellite link. It was a blustery day, but I hope you agree the views on the summit of Simonside where stunning as we give a practical guide to using a Garmin GPSMAP 66i. I regularly use the waypoint function and found it so useful that I used it to map my journey across Greenland. The Digital Compass
