Guest suntzu Posted May 31, 2001 Share Posted May 31, 2001 I have a Garmin GPS 12. I love it. easy to use, and have been able to find caches easily. P.S. It has an averaging feature too. Quote Link to comment
Guest mcb Posted May 31, 2001 Share Posted May 31, 2001 I just got a GPSMAP 76 and love it. It has a WAAS capable GPS receiver and 8 MB of map memory. Garmin sells a Metro/Road and Recreation for Canada check it out and see if it will cover what you want. http://www.garmin.com/cartography/mapSource/MGCanada.html Since this is a Metro and Roads and Recreation CD I would suggest a unit compatable with metro: GPSMAP 76 eTrex Vista eTrex Legend eMap The Street pilot series is also good but I don't think these would be good for geocaching. I would down load the manual for the above units and give them a quick look through. mcb Quote Link to comment

SoftMap Technologies; 418-523-2444 http://www.softmaptechnologies.com SoftMap Technologies specializes in digital maps for CANADA.

Guest lhbadman Posted June 25, 2001 Share Posted June 25, 2001 Dittos on Suntzu- I too have a Garmin 12, which I've come to trust far more than some of the new spiffy $99 models... spend a little more, get a little more! Quote Link to comment
