One of the coolest "techy" devices on the market. Garmin is at the top when it comes to GPS.
A GPS device of this caliper is seldom needed on a well marked trail. Although, the Oregon 550t came in handy last week when I needed to give know coordinates of my location to be picked up.
Needs a longer battery life, but they were smart enough to have the unit operate on 2 AA batteries. Good for emergencies, otherwise it is an overpriced gadget.
