etrexhmel Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Hi I live in the UK and do a lot of Countryside walks on footpaths using maps. I bought a Garmin eTrex H to help me with but it has been locked in my cupboard 2 days after purchase because I found it hard to use. I have just been shown the Geocaching website which sound fantastic and which I could incorperate into my walks. I would like to buy a reasonable priced Garmin which allows me to download maps of foorpaths onto my hand held GPS What do you recommend or can I find a way to get to grips with this eTrex H I already have. Very grateful for any advice or help Mel Quote Link to comment
+StarBrand Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 The eTrex H is a non mapping GPS unit. Best bet would probably be the Garmin eTrex legend HCx. Finding a good source for the maps is going to be tricky as well. Footpaths and the like are not always a part of topo maps. Quote Link to comment
