Hi folks,
Like many I got a GPSMAP 76csx, something I was waiting for the price to drop with new lines coming out. I replaced a GPS 12 XL, still working just fine. I am much more an orienteering kind of person. Most my outdoors is hiking, camping and fishing. I am more comfortable with a topo and compass. Now I have that all in one unit. I have not really kept up technology in USGS I used to order the hard copy topos from them, none of this data files stuff.
I prefer to hike alone, but on traveled trails in parks. If it is wildness than of course I have company. I guess because I am ex BSA leader in several capacities. I am not herding cats any longer.....
I love the outdoors, but all on the coasts 98% East Coast, Mid Atlantic to Florida.
I though geocaching would be fun to do, giving some purpose while hiking.
I am getting excited, but seem to have a lot to learn. As BSA says, "Be Prepared".
