The USB cable I ordered came in, but thr Garmin Etrex update software does not recognize it. Will play with it more. In the mean time I picked up a Garmin Oregon 450 for a great price. I will see how I like it, using it for geocaching, fishing, and hunting. If I get back into geocaching enough I will upgrade to something new. Thank you everyone for the help.

I will give this a try thanks! I first need to get a cable and that's going to take a week or so according to Amazon. I'll update once I know more. Thanks!

I presume it was just the base maps, but I really don't know. I don't need anything fancy. Just going to start doing geocaching again and use it to mark hunting and fishing spots, and some very light hiking and camping (nothing major back woods or anything like that). I am fortunate enough to live about 15 miles from Garmin headquarters, but I don't know if they still have a walk in customer service center, if they're even open during covid if they do have one, or if they would even touch a nearly 20 year old model without charging a silly amount of money. How do you send additional maps to the unit with mapsource, and where do you get the map files?

Hi, I realize that the model is severely outdated, and almost 20 years old, but it serves its purpose well. I have had a Garmin Etrex Legend since they first came out. About a year ago I accidentally put it on storage and it's buried in there somewhere. So, I picked up a used one off of eBay. It is functional; finds satellites, gets a position, all of the menus work, etc.. I was able to see the streets around my location just fine at first. However, now it does not display any streets, POIs, or anything. In the lower left hand corner it says 'no maps' (see image). I did not load any maps and there are none available to choose from in the maps menu (see image). If I update the firmware (currently 3.70) will the base maps be reloaded, or is there another way to load maps? I don't want to to spend money on a cable if it's not going to do me any good. Any help is greatly appreciated!
