+jesus_hiding_place Posted May 17, 2002 Posted May 17, 2002 Hello there. I will probably be getting a GPS device for my birthday at the end of July, but I would love to have one temporarily to help with a hike. Is there a good place to go to rent a GPS device? Does REI rent them? If not, would somebody on the Central California coast be interested in renting their GPS to me for a couple days? Quote
+ClayJar Posted May 17, 2002 Posted May 17, 2002 You might want to go to the regional forums and see if you can find someone to tag along with a little. I don't know if anyone there is going to have a receiver you can borrow, but chances are you can find someone to try to catch up to. It's the next best thing, and you get to actually meet another cacher, which is cool as well. Quote
Night Tracker Posted May 17, 2002 Posted May 17, 2002 If you can't get access to one I suggest you buy a decent compass and a topo map of the area you'll be in. Thats all you should need for now and you can always use a compass when you get your GPSr. Support PETA: Please Eat Tasty Animals Quote

Bagbug Posted May 17, 2002 Posted May 17, 2002 You can try the "returning policy" of some store. You know, the big ones where you can buy Cola, clothes, tires, etc ... Bag Quote

JDMC Posted May 18, 2002 Posted May 18, 2002 Does Central California Coast mean near Palo Alto? If so, I have an extra GPS I could lend out. Quote
