Also recommend the Garmin GPS 64, excellent and so far bombproof, can be used with mittens on too, if you're out in the winter months. I'm still using mine with the tried and tested features that carry over from any GPS, but there are a lot of other features, if only I could remember them all
I did get the case but found that the inside of the case can get steamed up making reading it impossible, so now its on the clip attached to the rucksack, unless its tipping down, and then its in a pocket, although it is waterproof, expensive kit isn't worth taking the chance. In addition I also fitted a screen protector.
I bought a couple of sets of Panasonic Eneloop Pro batteries and have found them to be excellent, together with an intelligent charger
I did nearly lose my GPS just after I bought it, but thankfully the road out from the days walk did not warrant much speed and after a while I decided to check out the noise on my roof, and to much relief the GPS was still there. I couldn't say the same for the old Etrex which met its demise leaving Glen Dessary, after only 100 yards out the car park I remembered I'd left it on top, but never found it despite searching both sides of the road and the flat car park, I guess it must have bounced
Seems to be a habit of mine
